In the meantime, you can use the field
Second Last Name
to show the
family
renaming. Also, make sure you write a comment and/or add a
source
to document the
event
. Ideally, GenoPro should support events the same as adding
pictures
or sources and citations.

Oh I
read
that GenoPro does not yet have the feature of Individual-related Events or events related to multiple individuals. That's a pity, but in my concrete case It does not matter so much. I am definitely looking forward to the event-supporting version of GenoPro.

I am new to GenoPro and wonder how I would keep record of the event of renaming. My parents moved with us from Czech Republic to Germany and the immigrant office offered us to germanize our surname (and my mother's
birth
name). So I think I should record this in GenoPro as a
user-defined
event related to the respective
family members
saying that their surname was changed from Zigmund to Siegmund and then an additional event for my mother, that her maiden name chanded officially from Stefanovičová to Stefanie.
How do I do this in GenoPro? I can imagine that in my concrete situation this is not really a big deal if there is no clean way to keep record of this, since I'll remember this as long as I live, and my descendants will use another genealogical software. But just suppose this would happen somewhere in the middle of my lineage and I would like to effectively tell GenoPro that this branch of the
family tree
changed the surname. (And keep track of when and where this happened, see the sources, scanned documents validating this event, and so on.)
