Is one's title part of one's name....?

My first name is Welsh, English people do not have a clue how to pronounce it, neither would they know what gender I am. I have the same problem with Asian names, I don't know if the person is male or female. That is why I think it is important to have the prefix Mrs. on all official documents, including cheque books and bank/credit cards.

My card says Mrs followed by first name ,initial of middle name then surname.
I regret the Mrs and wish I had used Ms instead or no title at all!!
Men don't declare their martial status so why should the world and his wife know mine !? Just another tradition to keep women ' in their place ' ??

If they ask for the name on the card, then they want what appears on the card. If (as I do) you always look at the card to check that you have got the number correct, then right in front of you is the name that the card is registered under. No need to second guess whether they are asking for something different, just copy what you see. Even a peer of the realm has probably registered his credit card as "Joe Bloggs", (or maybe "Joseph Bloggs", if he was being formal) not as "His Highness the Twelfth Duke of Ruritaniashire and hereditary trainer of the Royal Corgis."

I don’t use my title ever unless it specifically asks

I can't remember the last time I needed to say what the name on the card is. If I've filled in a form online I think it has usually been boxes for firstname and lastname.

Most of the time I just use a fingertip and all relevant details are filled in by magic. I used to be able to quote all the numbers on my most used credit card without needing the actual card to be anywhre near me. Can't do that now because I don't need to.

My cards have been Mrs K Lester since I got married 53 years ago (even new ones) so I think it's historical and I keep meaning to ring and get it changed but only remember when a new one appears by which time it's too late.

On my card it it Mrs Initial Initial Surname
- So I always use that including the Mrs.
I gather that it has to be identical to what is on the card.
If you originally did not use Mr or Mrs or Ms, then that would not be required.

a title always used to be included on bank cards as some slight security, as it limits impersonators to half the population.
of course that was in the olden days.
when there were only 2 sexes.
and it was one or the other, no hovering about.
for distant payments just copy/state exactly what is written on card, to avoid confusion.

If someone asked for my name I would not give title but if they asked for my name as it appears on the card then I would give exactly what appears on the card as that is what they are checking against.

I think you can use your title on your credit/debit card if you want to, or not if you don’t want to.

It depends what it says on the card that I'm using.

I only use Mrs J Vampirequeen when someone as annoyed me and I'm signing an email/letter of complaint.

When I'm really, really annoyed I use my DH initial and sign Mrs C Vampirequeen.

Your title isn’t part of your name, unless you are a peer of the realm.

I don't admit to the Mrs bit or my full first name and haven't ever had a problem.

I do as requested by entering name as it appears on the card or it causes problems if not done.

I'm with you Baggs. And, my first name is a bit different to the norm and my surname sounds like a more ordinary first name and second name so I would only complicate matters by mentioning my title as well.

If asked for name as it appears on card then I do just that Mrs first name last name (about the only time I ever have to own up to my full first name)
