(a) A financing statement sufficiently provides the name of the debtor

(1) except as otherwise provided in (3) of this subsection, if the debtor is a registered organization or the collateral is held in a trust that is a registered organization, only if the financing statement provides the name that is stated to be the registered organization's name on the public organic record most recently filed with or issued or enacted by the registered organization's jurisdiction of organization that purports to state, amend, or restate the registered organization's name;

(2) subject to (f) of this section, if the collateral is being administered by the personal representative of a decedent, only if the financing statement provides, as the name of the debtor, the name of the decedent and, in a separate part of the financing statement, indicates that the collateral is being administered by a personal representative;

(3) if the collateral is held in a trust that is not a registered organization, only if the financing statement

(A) provides, as the name of the debtor,

(4) if the debtor is an individual, only if the financing statement provides

(A) the individual name of the debtor;

(B) the surname and first personal name of the debtor; or

(C) subject to (g) of this section, the name of the individual that is indicated on an unexpired driver's license that this state has issued to the individual or on an unexpired identification card issued to the individual under AS 18.65.310; and

(1) a trade name or other name of the debtor; or

(2) unless required under (a)(5)(B) of this section, names of partners, members, associates, or other persons of which the debtor is composed.

(e) A financing statement may provide the name of more than one debtor and the name of more than one secured party.

(f) The name of the decedent indicated on the order appointing the personal representative of the decedent issued by the court having jurisdiction over the collateral is sufficient as the name of the decedent under (a)(2) of this section.
