I am not sure I fully understand the business case for this request and it is therefore difficult to assess its priority. Can you please give me an example of how you would use this additional field? Do you mean initial as middle name initial (formal usage in the US) like: First Name: John Middle Name Initial: T. Last Name: Smith Usage: "Dear John T. Smith..." or as a short version of the name (like it is used in MS Word for change tracking): First Name: John Last Name: Smith Initial: JS Usage: ??? |

The initials field should be used to address people in a correct way. This should be inclusive all birthnames. For example: firstname: Morten lastname: Minke other birthnames: Antoon Then the initials are M.A. And to address somebody: Dear Mr. M.A. Minke In the Netherlands there is also another issue with names in that we have a 'midfix' which also has a special meaning in names: For example: firstname: Saskia birthnames: Bernardina Maria midfix: van lastname: Bijnen Full name: Saskia Brenardina Maria van Bijnen (notice the small capitals for 'van') Initials: S.B.M. addressing: Dear Ms. S.B.M. van Bijnen (notice that the midfix is not abbreviated!) to get full international name support I think the following fields should be available: <prefix> <firstname> <birthnames> <midfix> <lastname> <suffix> and <initials> which basically holds the first letters fo the firstname and the birthnames. |
