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)

Would Wally’s â€˜child name’ and â€˜adult name’ 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 â€˜nicknames’?
