Dont know how this work in the US. I think when you name a child you have to present it to the authorities get it's first ID and/or birth certificate. Whatever it is they do first when giving you a name.
Isn't it possible that after your parents saying they want to call you Dan the clerk writing up the data asked them if they would give you a second name, and they replied: "Dan alone"...and the stupid clerk wrote "Dana Lone" ....... Just say your name (Dana Lone) and see if it doesn't sound like it (Dan alone)?
They wouln'd be aware of the mistake and when they finally got the ID/registry/paperwork/birth certificate or whatever it was they noticed the wrong name on it .....
Well i'm not from here and may have been wandering and writing nonsense, or not?

I never could get a straight answer from them.
