Name Options

Name Hint

• Varying

If necessary, statistical logic will be employed to determine name order, with no bias toward either name order.

• Definitely Full

Name will always be treated as normal name order, regardless of formatting or punctuation.

• Very Likely Full

Name will be treated as normal name order unless inverse order is clearly indicated by formatting or punctuation.

• Probably Full

If necessary, statistical logic will be employed to determine name order, with a bias toward normal name order.

• Probably Inverse

If necessary, statistical logic will be employed to determine name order, with a bias toward inverse name order.

• Very Likely Inverse

• Mixed First Name

• Mixed Last Name

Middle Name Logic

Determines the handling of middle names.

• Parse Logic

Middle names that are typically last names are considered to be part of a hyphenated last name.

The middle word is assumed to be part of the last name. For Example: "Matthew Edward Jones" is treated as "Matthew Edward-Jones."

• Middle Name

The middle word is assumed to be a middle name. For example: "Matthew Svensson Jones." "Svensson" would be considered a middle name instead of part of the last name.
