Quoting Gemini76:

The reason is that here you have a credit which lists two different names for the same person, but we only have one field for them. So what should then be first, second or and last name for this actor.

This is a non-issue as the common name for this person is 'Gotham Chopra'.  That means we should enter it as 'Gotham/ /Chopra [Autam Chopra AKA Gotham Chopra]'.  I can't speak to how we would deal with it in general but, let's be honest here, how many times are we really going to see this type of credit?

Quote:
An example: A crew is credited with one name in the opening credits, and a different name in the end-credits. Shouldn't you then only enter one of them? Like if we had: Director: Jimmy Smith in the opening credits, and Director: Jim Smith in the end credits.

I have seen this with cast, but never with crew.  Crew people only get credited once, either in the opening or in the closing credits.  Cast, on the other hand, can be credited in both.  But this is also a non-issue as the rules are clear on this as well...we take the cast from the end credits only.

What we he probably could do, is to write: Gotham Chopra [Autam (Gotham) Chopra]. But this would probably be to inventive.

Inventive and against the rules.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.
