Turkey Evisa Given Name

Hi Guys,
Hopefully someone can help me here.
I was applying for the Turkey evisa online. In the form, the first name/given name field is a mandatory field and can't be left empty.
But the problem is that on my passport, there is no first/given name, the field is blank on my passport.
I tried calling them on the number mentioned and also contacting them through the website but they didn't know how I should proceed.

So I'm not exactly sure what I should put in that field in the online evisa form. Usually in other visa applications if I can't leave a field empty, they mention to put either NA (Not Available) or FNU (First Name Unavailable). But this application hasn't mentioned anything like this.

Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks Guys!

Are you Cher or Sting or somebody? I would put your family name in the field for that, and any other names in the given name field.

You got me, I'm sting! After The Police broke up, I've been spending my buckets of money traveling the world.

Jokes aside, on my passport I have a last name, just no first name.
I think I will just put N-A in the first name field, that's how some other visa applications work.

Thanks for the response!

SNAFU as first name would be good too.

Don't worry too much. They didn't even look at our e-visa paper. They just checked our passport and wrote a small visa paper that we needed to present when we left the country. Here again no-one asked for the little paper.

Your passport doesn't have a given name . . . but you do right?

Enter your first name there . . .

If anyone comes back to this question again, I put N-A as the first name and it went fine, didn't have any issue with the visa.
