De : LegacyUserGroup <[email protected]> De la part de Roberta Schwalm Envoyé : 19 octobre 2022 14:21 À : Legacy User Group <[email protected]> Objet : Re: [LegacyUG] TR: Duplicate Georges, you might want to send in a suggestion to Legacy about including alternate names in duplicates. For example, I have 4 direct descendants from my great-great-grandfather Mathew Snoddy. His firstborn son was William and was always known as William. The first William named his first son William who was known as Willy. William (Willy) named his son William who was known as Bill. William's (Bill) firstborn son was also given the name William but we always knew him as Billy. You can just imagine the confusion when official first names had to be used!

Other names should be considered. Let's take an example. I use one of my noble ancestors because it's easier to illustrate. William X (Occitan: Guillém X; 1099 – 9 April 1137), called the Saint, was Duke of Aquitaine, Duke of Gascony, and Count of Poitou (as William VIII) from 1126 to 1137. I then enter William X as the primary name and William VIII as the alternate name. The next time I enter William VIII's name, Legacy won't recognize it as a duplicate unless it includes the other names in its check.

What is taken into account to suggest possible duplicates depends on them. You may be asking whether AKAs are also considered. I don't think so.
