English term or phrase: legal name
I have been trying to register for inclusion in a US agency's database. The first field to fill in was "legal name". I thought this meant my full name, but I could get no further because a "prefix" was required. I have no idea what is meant. Everything I tried was rejected. I would be grateful for an explanation.
