This should answer your question:
class Person(models.Model):
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s %s' % (self.first_name, self.last_name)
If you define a __unicode__() method on your model and not a
__str__()<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/instances/?from=olddocs#django.db.models.Model.__str__>method,
Django will automatically provide you with a
__str__()<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/instances/?from=olddocs#django.db.models.Model.__str__>that
calls
__unicode__() and then converts the result correctly to a UTF-8 encoded
string object. This is recommended development practice: define only
__unicode__() and let Django take care of the conversion to string objects
when required.
