You just need to draw a Name Affidavit to prove that, you are the same named person, as shown in the document or for any other purposes. But, it is also necessary to understand, what is Affidavit and what is its importance?
An Affidavit is a written declaration, where the declarant (affiant or deponent) certifies that, the facts of the particular subject, recorded in the form are true to his knowledge. The document has to be witnessed and signed by Commissioner of Oaths, a lawyer or Justice of the Peace. These proceedings are essential because, the signed form is used in legal proceedings.
In Wikipedia, this document is defined as "a formal sworn statement of fact, signed by the declarant (who is also called the affiant or deponent) and witnessed (as to the veracity of the declarant’s signature) by a taker of oaths, such as a notary public."
