From the messages I have read from the database linked below, the last name was the most common method, especially in the later war. The link below is an example of one such message (an ULTRA decrypt). Anything contained with the double parentheses is an addition by British intelligence so the Admiralty could track which boats had which captains.

Yes, I thought about it. As far as we mantain rank, name and surname as three different blocks, separated by two spaces, it shouldn't be difficult for TDW to isolate the desired element, or even to recombine the three of them at wish
