What about accessibility? How about changing the design to accommodate a 
div that may have a name (you didn't indicate forename(s) or surnames) 
containing up to 20 characters like "Christina Fitzgerald." That is just 
a random name length. Remember that text in input boxes grow when 
bumping up the text size.
