Is there a reason you can't just stop using your middle name? The only time I've needed mine as an adult was when applying for government jobs which required a thorough vetting. Private sector jobs don't seem to care about them at all.
In your country this is true. But the country I live in requires that I use my middle name on everything! Since my passport is based on my BC, it has my middle name. Everything in turn is based on my passport. Drivers License, bank accounts, health insurance, hospital and clinic cards, pharmacies - even my cell phone! A middle name is personal and I hate being made to use it on everything! Imagine going to a hospital and having your FULL NAME being called in front of everyone. I hate it!!

And now, I have to deal with the bureaucracy of my own country. The court in the county I was born in said I have to be a resident. I have not live in the U.S. for decades. I might as well be living on the moon.
