| Posted: | | | | I would only use H./B./Halicki as a common name if it was his commonly credited as name.
If not then I would use H./B. "Toby"/Halicki | | | Are you local? This is a local shop the strangers you would bring would not understand us, our customs, our local ways. |

| Posted: | | | | I took a look and it seems he is already in the database with both names. H./B./Halicki being the most common according to the lookup tool. So I'd use that and give him a "credited as" H. B. "Toby" Halicki. | | | Build a man a fire and you keep him warm for a day. Set a man on fire and you keep him warm the rest of his life. |

Toby" Halicki, his middle name was just "Toby". just because a nickname is entered into the middle name field it does not make it a middle name, its still a nickname. His nickname is Toby, his middle name is Blight and is first name is Henry and his last name is Halicki. Only thing that changes that is if you can prove that Henry Blight is a double barreled first name. if not we have two pieces of data that would get parsed into the middle name field. however this is all a non issue because as the CLT stands no (providing what was stated above is correct) then the most common credited form is H. B. Halicki which would be H./B./Halicki -Agrare | | | Last edited: by Agrare |

| Posted: | | | | Personally, this is why I loathe the rule about putting nicknames in the middle name field. I believe there should be separate fields for nicknames and honorifics (Dr., Father, General, etc.), since none of these are part of a person's actual "name." |

| Posted: | | | | The poll is about parsing an as credited name not about a common or actual name. I think it's confusing to have both the nickname and the middle name in the middle name field, because it suggests they belong together. That's why I would separate them. If however H./B./Halicki is in fact his common name then we could enter the whole credited as name in the appropriate field and we would not have anything to worry about. | | | Martin Zuidervliet

Don't bring up side issues that offer nothing. With all due respect we would all agree that a Nickname field would be helpful. But we don't have one nor can we create one, Ken can but that's a different story. For now we have what we have and CLT aside that would be Initial/ Initial "nickname"/Name. The CLT as indicated by Hal may provide another possibility, it also might not, in this case it does seem to.
