Name Display on my renewed passport

I have one question with regards to my name display on my recently renewed passport. Might be I am over sensitive, but its worth clarifying. I will use dummy name as an example to ask my question which is as follows:


My Name so far on my Passport has been: A B James Bond, where A B James was always treated as First name and Bond as my Last name.

Same has been the case with all my visas issued by UKBA as well as in my LIUK result sheet.

Since my passport was expiring, I had to go to my country's Embassy and they told me that I cannot use A B as initials and rather asked me to give the full name for initials. So I gave my name as:

Alpha Bravo James Bond, which is now in my newly renewed passport.

Question is, as A B James Bond has been my name on all my documents since birth, will this abbreviated name have any effect on the application for ILR I will submit later this year? Any chances that this will create a confusion for UKBA, though I will attach my previous passport with this newly renewed one when I will apply for my ILR.

Any reply would be highly appreciated.

Regards,

REDBULL110.

Always carry, expired passport. New passport has mostly reference to old/expired passport.
