Examples: Continuing to use a maiden name in a professional context, or using a stage performing name (some of these names are also pseudonyms) 22776 active 2 ANON Anonymous **Description:**Anonymous assigned name (used to protect a persons identity for privacy reasons) 22775 active 2 I Indigenous/Tribal **Description:**e.g . Chief Red Cloud 22773 active 2 P Other/Pseudonym/Alias **Description:**A non-official name by which the person is sometimes known. (This may also be used to record informal names such as a nickname) 22774 active 2 R religious **Description:**A name assumed as part of a religious vocation . e.g . Sister Mary Francis, Brother John 22777 active 1 C customary **Description:**Known as/conventional/the one you normally use 22769 active N 1 N customary **Description:**Known as/conventional/the one you normally use 22769 retired C 1 M maiden name **Description:**A name used prior to marriage.Note that marriage naming customs vary greatly around the world. This name use is for use by applications that collect and store maiden names. Though the concept of maiden name is often gender specific, the use of this term is not gender specific. The use of this term does not imply any particular history for a person's name, nor should the maiden name be determined algorithmically 22780 active 1 NameRepresentationUse NameRepresentationUse **Description:**Identifies the different representations of a name . The representation may affect how the name is used . (E.g . use of Ideographic for formal communications.) 22765 true active 2 ABC alphabetic **Description:**Alphabetic transcription of name in latin alphabet (Japanese: romaji) 22766 active 2 IDE ideographic **Description:**Ideographic representation of name (e.g., Japanese kanji, Chinese characters) 22767 active 2 SYL syllabic **Description:**Syllabic transcription of name (e.g., Japanese kana, Korean hangul) 22768 active 1 OLD no longer in use **Description:**This name is no longer in use (note: Names may also carry valid time ranges . This code is used to cover the situations where it is known that the name is no longer valid, but no particular time range for its use is known) 22778 active 2 DN do not use **Description:**This name should no longer be used when interacting with the person (i.e . in addition to no longer being used, the name should not be even mentioned when interacting with the person)Note: applications are not required to compare names labeled "Do Not Use" and other names in order to eliminate name parts that are common between the other name and a name labeled "Do Not Use". 22779 active 1 OR official registry name **Description:**The formal name as registered in an official (government) registry, but which name might not be commonly used . May correspond to the concept of legal name 22770 active 1 PHON phonetic **Description:**The name as understood by the data enterer, i.e. a close approximation of a phonetic spelling of the name, not based on a phonetic algorithm. 22782 active 1 SRCH search **Description:**A name intended for use in searching or matching. This is used when the name is incomplete and contains enough details for search matching, but not enough for other uses. 22781 active 1 T temporary **Description:**A temporary name. Note that a name valid time can provide more detailed information. This may also be used for temporary names assigned at birth or in emergency situations. 22771 active
