Hello. Is it possible to apply for an alternate name here in the Philippines? I have a current name registered in almost all Philippine documents I have, but I also use a different name with few of my documents, esp. with the Korean offices. Is it possible to register my other name as another official name of mine here in the Philippines? Thank you.

Hmm, napaisip ako. as far as PH law is concerned, your only name is the one stated on your birth certificate, but it is also a practice to have another name (such as with Chinese persons), but under PH law that would not be considered an official name. But if you used your Korean name in let's say a contract then it would still be binding
