Roberta,

Georges is a beta tester.
"Mantis" is short hand for the software we use to track bug and feature suggestions.

    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!____

            Thank you for the answer. That's what I thought and I
            think it's a bug. 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.____

        Georges,
        A full merge has criteria that you can use as they are or modify.
        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.

            In  merging, when searching for duplicate, are the other
            names taken into
