I think you have to remove your 1st wife name form your passport then add the 2nd. after that you can bring her to here.
because if you will not do that you may face some problems with passport officers when they know this is not your mentioned wife.

Euh? Shabab, I don't think so! I'm married since 38 years but my husband's name was never mentioned in my passport and I never had any problem with that in any country, not even in KSA!
However, I agree to say that he should have the name of his 1s wife removed from the passport and produce his family book or marriage certificate when introducing the visa request.

In which countries is this done?

I've never seen this.

My wife's passport (Thailand) does not have my name in, except she has my surname (her choice).

i think marriage certificate, duly translated/verified in arabic shall be enough for grant of visa for her as your family member...
