The teller at your local bank branch is probably not going to accept 
"b_nh^fg#3s" as your mother's maiden name, if only because it's

In some cases (not necessarily banks) you have to have your birth 
certificate, which would prove your not giving them real information, 
which could then invalidate your entire account - when signing up for 
some sort of insurance for example.
