Explanation:  Having a middle name or several middle names is quite common and legal, but also not having a middle name is legal. This means that when filling out form a, depending on the state, one can, for example, put the initials N.M.N. (no middle name) or similar. Also, if there is one, the middle name can be indicated in the name by initials. All of this, when filling out the form, you may also ask the salter clerk or anyone who knows this information reliably and not the legal, though if you are in the situation you may as well.

Legal advice as such is given solely by a lawyer, and it concerns important matters when careful analysis of regulations and the law as a whole is needed. No careful analysis is required to fill in a form without a middle name, it is simple to know whether to enter a middle name and what to do if one does not have a middle name. This is simply known by clerk who work on a daily basis to receive completed forms.
