I once fucked up with this while enrolling for my bachelor's degree. To me name implies the full name, with last name and any other names and words in between. So I put there (I have no second names etc). Then I had to separately enter my last name, which was weird but okay, I guess that's relevant info that can't always easily be extracted from the full name.

Of course, I then got a letter with "Dear ,". It became a meme in my friend group that my name is basically my first name followed by infinite repetitions of my last name. And I haven't really learnt from it either, it has happened at least once more because I will always interpret "name" as full name.

Okay, hear me out

What if we put 'last name' first to put down so that we never fuck it up again?

if you put the last name first then it would no longer be a last name.
