Ask HN: Facebook Name Change Fiasco

My last name in FB is now "No Last Name - Disowned By Family"

Obviously that is incorrect.

Is there any one at Facebook who can fix this?

I had a First and Last name verified by ID. I submitted a name change request, but it required a last name, so I put in "No last name - disowned by family" and now that is my last name on my profile.

email used in Facebook: thomas@fastmail.org

I would like this opportunity to remind everyone:

    A friend of mine is from Myanmar and moved to the U.K. and had no surname when she moved here. To make it easier she adopted her father’s first name (both her and her father’s name are westernised anyway).
