Profile Name Change

I just wanted to change my profile name so that I can link my ATM card. Currently, it's set at first middle and last. I want it to just be full first name, no middle, and full last name. I don't have the other three options for the second part: marriage certificate, certificate of divorce, deed poll. I don't have any of those three because, one, I'm not married and never was, and I never changed my name (deed poll's use). I only have the first file which is a government-issued ID. How do I get through this name change step? Thanks.

You can only change a name on a paypal account for 2 minor character errors OR for legal reasons ie marriage.

You can't change it for any other reason, so would it be an option to close that account down removing all financial info and cancelling any subscriptions and opening on in your correct name?
