Wow! There has been a lot of work on this! We are interested in being able to
have the patron record show "Preferred Name" in quotation marks in the first
position followed by first and middle names and then last name. So, for
example, it might show as "Sammy" Suzanne Michelle Hodson, with everything
being searchable and all showing up on the patron record side bar. My idea
would be to let registering patrons fill in the first and middle name field and
also the preferred name field and have them show up in that order on Koha, or
let libraries choose how they would like the names to show up or whether to
have them hidden, if that is possible. Thanks for the great efforts on this!
