You can get your name added to the birth certificate. Visit the office of registrar of birth in the area mentioned in the birth certificate with the following documents.

Request letter from the parent whose child name has to be corrected
Photo ID of Parents
Joint Affidavit of Parents: The affidavit from your parents will provide proof that you have gone by this name and have established an identity using it. In the event that your parents are not able to provide an affidavit, older relatives may provide one for you. If your parents or older relatives are unable to assist you with an affidavit, you can attempt to provide your personal affidavit. In this case, be sure to include public record documentation showing that you have established an identity using this name from birth. Documents you might be able to use to establish proof that you have used this name in your identity include : Census records, Hospital and vaccination records (generally pertaining to postnatal care) or School record from early years.
Educational document of child whose name has to be corrected, if any.
Order from the court (only if registrar requests for it)
