Not to overcrowd "Confirmation name" discussion, I'm opening this new…

One question occurs at this time :roll: what about person/s that decided to change religion :?: As it happens I know few persons that decided to change their religion... and/or declared themselves as other religion members due to political situation or because of personal reasons (inter-religious marriages etc.)...

Associated with that, I have even bigger problem. How to track and note names and family names changes within one or just two generations.
On some parts of my country, within last 120 years over 10-15 countries claimed their jurisdiction and almost each and every one of them had their own ways of putting down family names and ways of spelling them... So far I'm putting all data in "notes" field or ignoring it…

Any ideas?

In other programs you have a "Name change" event which you can add to a person as much as you like.
Here you can add this event with the tag editor.

The only problem that I see is that it happens a lot in your tree. I think that maybe it can be solved by putting all the name changes in one string with the year/date of change between them.

What do you think?
