Will my differing surname on documents cause problems for my non B teaching visa in Vientiane?

Non-B Visa Teaching Visa Surname Discrepancy Visa Application Process Thailand Immigration Document Requirements

ORIGINAL POSTER

Hey everyone. So today my employer gave me all my papers for the non b teaching visa in Vientiane. Everything seems to be in order except one thing as you can see all of my papers state my surname as abinaimnassereddine as stated in my passport but my diploma states it as abi naim only. The reason why this is so is because the Venezuelan government tends to add the mother's surname to the actual surname while my diplomas origin is Lebanon where only the actual surname is stated. I will leave to Vientiane tomorrow, do you think this will cause a problem?
