A rather grey area. You could legally have the name 'Jack A' (or A Jack). But two the forename and surname would have to be completed. It would also be a matter of practicality. Very few utilities, mail, credit cards or banks would accept an applicant with one name. Added: Bottom line: For purposes of identification - you can call yourself ANYTHING that you like - provided that - you file THAT name with the court and that is the name you will continue to use and have yourself be known by in perpetuity.
