Bev,
Exactly what I thought as I read the notice.
John
I would be inclined to regard both the indigenous names as what we call surnames, in the same manner as some older Javanese sometimes have only one name.
John would it be acceptable to index these alternative names in the following way?
MITAWALINYA, (Mitta)
NGITJUWULUNYA, (Mitta)

Subject: [ryerson_index] How to record Wally's other name/s?
Would Wallyâs âchild nameâ and âadult nameâ be forenames or surnames?
Judging by his nickname, they are perhaps forenames but would Porter have been his surname then, bearing in mind indigenous customs?
Or should we show them both as ânicknamesâ?
