I never knew a contrarian had to be logical!
As to why: I wanted the folder in chronological order (as people lived) rather than alphabetical. In another mail I wrote that I keep very few paper documents/pictures; if I had lots of paper documents, throwing everything into one big box (like one big folder online) would be a disaster.

My initial inclination is lastname.yyyy.firstname.yyyy.descriptor. Do you use your system for both digital & paper filing?
