Full name (as in all Christian names) is quite possible and frequent as
anyone who has shares, or other financial products, will get mailings
with full names on the envelope. I think DVLA also do this depending on
how your licence or car details are recorded by them.
I used to think I was paranoid always tearing off my name and address
before recycling envelopes but now I'm consoled that I am slightly less
mad than I thought!
