Could a different transliteration in the foreign passport be of use?

If the transliteration of the first name only get updated, in the foreign passport, would it be of use in any way? It would mess some thing up, granted, in some places. At the same time, thanks to a different transliteration, it could be useful.

Not at the entrance to a country but in other places. At a payment systems where I might've gotten flagged or banned for some reason, for instance.

What do you think?

Nope. You remain the same person, with the same dob and pob. All basic KYC systems are aware that this is a common occurrence.

So, on my new country passport, all I have to do is change my dob and pob?

They won't scan my picture?

PS. Of course, with a different name that matches the country's normal names

In some countries you are legally allowed to change your name and surname, most simply in common law jurisdictions with a deed poll. That should do the trick in many circumstances.
