Some people, though, use their second name, if it is more familiar to the people here; I know of at least two cases. In both cases, the second name is in common use in Bolivia, whereas the first is not.

I have never had a problem getting a job because of my name, but I do end up spelling my name a lot. I am just glad I don't have any of the 'weird' characters (as they call them here) in my name (æøå). It does help that Kirk Douglas played a character called Prince Einar in an old viking movie lol
