This also goes for when the preferred name IS the middle name. That sounds like a good enhancement to make Interesting! Do you suggest preferred name always include middle name, or that it be an option? Would that option be set per-patron or globally? (In reply to Andrew Fuerste-Henry from comment #3) > Interesting! Do you suggest preferred name always include middle name, or > that it be an option? Would that option be set per-patron or globally? I would say it should at least be an option per user and not global. There might be a library somewhere that thinks if you use a nickname that you would want to do a blanket removal of the middle name with it, but at least per user would give you that option. I agree this would be a nice option. In the Johnathan David Smith example, if he goes by David as the preferred name, it displays as David David Smith. It would make more sense just to see David Smith. |
