I Am Legally Two Separate People, How Do I Fix It?

Location: New Jersey

When my parents filled out my official documents when I was born the early nineties, they messed up and I was given two different middle names. My birth certificate has one middle name/initial, while my social security card has a different middle name/initial. My drivers license follows my birth certificate, while my school documents (including my college diplomas) follow my social security card.

I don’t know how this wasn’t caught earlier through my schooling or when I went to get my license for the first time, but I did not discover the discrepancy until I was twenty and applied for a passport for the first time. Naturally, I was denied a passport because obviously you can’t send in identifying documents that don’t match and expect to get another identifying document based off them.

I tried to google how to fix it a few times when I first discovered it, but life happened and it was put on the back burner because I was overwhelmed and lost. My parents have been of no help.

I need an adultier adult to help me figure out what I can do to get this fixed so I am one singular person on all documents and I can finally get a passport in the event I need to leave the country.
