I have many names with two names in the first name field, only, with none in the middle name. Do it the way you like. I also have multiple names in both the middle and surnames fields. If the way aperson was called includes two first names, put both in the first name. Example: Pope John Paul. He was never called John, nor Paul, alone, no matter what language. Rich in LA CA
