FWIW I've never had any problems with using a shortened version of my given name on many bits of ID. The only bit of ID that has the longer name is my birth certificate. Passport, driving license, etc all use shortened version. Electoral roll has the longer version, as does my NHS records (so GP surgery/etc), and council tax (so that probably comes from the electoral roll). All of my US Visa documentation was done against the shortened version, no problems.
Whenever I book flights or stuff I always use the shortened version as that's what password and driving license say.
Can't remember what my marriage certificate says.
