--- Comment #135 from David Nind <[email protected]> ---
See the chat discussion about the sample data used by KTD - it is currently
only displaying the surname in patron search results, patron page, and wherever
the patron name is displayed in Koha. 

Chat discussion:
https://chat.koha-community.org/koha-community/pl/xqhc3c8g7tdu38fyp971z4oiqa

I'm also unsure about patron autocomplete and DefaultPatronSearchFields in KTD,
as it doesn't include preferred_name by default when it is started up. 

The assumption is that the database update will take care of things for
existing installations, unless I have misunderstood:
- Preferred name field added to patron information
- Patron autocomplete: preferred_name added to DefaultPatronSearchFields
