I have several questions about names / suffixes / titles / ...
1) place of the suffix
When I put a number after a name, FTM automatically changes it into a suffix. The problem is that when printing documents or lists, the suffix is placed after the full name. This results in people such as "William of England IV" in stead of "William IV of England".
I keep on changing them by hand, but sometimes they just "jump back". Is there a way to keep FTM from moving these, but keeping the other options in the "auto-correct"?
2) nicknames
- When I have name variations in the family name, I creat an alternate name (eg Graham, alt. Grayham, alt. Greyham)
- When someone has a different calling name, I put that in "also known as" (eg Caroline aka Carol)
- But how can I add an additional nickname? A name that is added to the first name rather than replacing it? eg "Alfred the Great of England". Do I but "Alfred the Great" as first name? Or is there an option available to add a middle name or a nickname?
Thanks for any tips!
Tom
