Ex: Someone's name is Ethan and birth certificate shows EN
If the name were misspelled as "Ethin" instead of "Ethan", that would be the type of error that can potentially be fixed by correction. Changing "EN" to "Ethan" would likely be viewed as a complete change of first name, requiring a formal name change. If the name might be eligible for correction, or to correct the California birth certificate after obtaining a name change order from a court, forms are available here.
