   Just tried to open a new bank account and my full name was too many characters. 🙃
   I left out my middle name to make it work. Mentally preparing for the trouble this will cause when I mail in a copy of my zairyu.

     @Dana my first and middle names seem to *just* fit in most forms.

     I did forget to include my middle name when I applied for a mobile phone account though, and sheesh, the drama that caused...
