Is there a way to complete the registration without changing my legal name? Has anyone else faced this issue?

Hello MongoDB Team,

I am registering for the MongoDB Associate Developer (Python) Certification using the MongoDB for Students voucher.

My legal name on all government-issued documents is PUNITH K, where “K” is my official surname/initial.

During certification checkout, the registration page requires the last name to be between 2 and 255 characters, so I cannot proceed because my legal surname contains only one character.

I signed in using GitHub and my registration information already shows:

  • First Name: PUNITH

  • Last Name: K

Is there a way to complete the registration without changing my legal name? Has anyone else faced this issue?

Thank you.
