I like the idea of a phrase PhNameFriendly.  Ron, can you tell me a bit more how GenoPro would this phrase?  Do you wish to have a tag i.Name.Friendly where GenoPro uses the phrase to format the friendly name?

I propose to change the skin to use the Dictionary phrase
 <!-- 0=First Name, 1=Full Name, 2=Nickname -->
 <PhNameFriendly T="{0}[{?!0}{1}][, known as {2},]" />
So we would have say Robert, known as Bob,. The person's full name is provided in the heading, and is only used in this phrase when is there is no first name. I hope this will be acceptable to most people.

Perhaps a better solution would be to have a 'known as' field that would specify the name to be shown in the report.

There was some discussion on this last year - see http://support.genopro.com/Topic5659-58-1.aspx

It has been that way for some time. It was done deliberately as people are generally better known by their 'nickname', short form or familiar name than their registered/baptised/given name. My registered first name is Ronald but I'm generally known as Ron, although family call me Ronnie. I know that in some cases nicknames are imposed by friends that you would rather not have but tend to stick all the same.

Perhaps a better solution would be to have a 'known as' field that would specify the name to be shown in the report.
