Spouse Used Slightly Different Name in First Marriage, What Impact Does that Have?

[NHSpouse]

My spouse committed bigamy, I am the second spouse so I want to get an annulment. However, it appears that my spouse used a slightly different name in their first marriage and I am concerned that my spouse may claim that this was actually a different person. I know this is not true, but how will the court approach this issue?
