Hi, these questions may sound silly, nevertheless I would like to have some input on how others do handle things:
1 When I started using Legacy, I entered all the given names into the Given field Since some people have up to 4-5 second/third etc. such names, I changed my mind lateron and made all additional names into AKAs. The advantage is that for instance my mother doesn't show up anymore as 'Margaretha Emilie Johanna Maria' <g>. The disadvantage of course - people with same (first) given names can't be identified easily, and I don't really like the looks of it in reports (again). How do you do it? 2 Similar story with titles. At the beginning I entered all the Dr., Dir. Ing (engineer) etc. but later decided that it just sounded silly on reports or pedigrees to have an uncle named Dr. Fred Flintstone (or the like). Thus I moved all this info over to the notes. Particularly some 50 or 100 and more years after a person is gone, I feel that the title looses increasingly more of the importance that it may have had before. What's you solution to this?
