Upload the passport copy before you changed name.

note:
The term "depole" is a misspelling of "deed poll," which is the official legal document used to change your name in the UK. A deed poll is sometimes incorrectly spelled as "depol," "depole," or "depol," but they all refer to the same document. This legal (corporate/admiralty!) process allows individuals over the age of 16 to change any part of their name, including first names, middle names, or surname.

So going back to 'TECA " paperwork . Use original birth certificate name . (you will upload a copy of that birth certificate to gfg and send foreign secretary etc)
You will formally claim all you past names if and when you do your 928 the document is called 'Certificate of Assumed Name'
