I am not sure how to deal with entering the names of a relative who chose to use a different first name when he became an entertainer. In this case Ernest was known as Jerry for most of his working life but retained his surname.
Would it be appropriate to use the Names/Titles dialog box and enter Jerry as a nickname or to enter it as the given name used?
Expanding this issue how would I deal with an individual who used a completely different name maybe without a deed poll change, for example,the entertainer baptised as Harry Webb but generally known as Cliff Richard?
