Depends... Introducing yourself to new people that way could help it... It is easiest to do when you move to a new location. That's what I did... switched to going by my mn for latter 2 yrs. of uni and then after moving to Jpn, started going by both as a double name among other foreigners (many Jpns. have a hard time w/ my mn because of prn)... for various reasons.
