Question

The boy and the girl's father have similar names. The boy has two names and primarily uses the name that is not the same as the father's, but he signs and is called to the Torah with both names. Is this sufficient? Or does he need to completely remove the second name? And if possible, please specify if there is a difference between an ideal situation and a difficult situation (such as a shidduch that is very suitable).

Answer

Shalom Rav

According to the instructions of the Gaon, Rabbi Avraham Fried, shlita, there is no concern in this case.
