Structure for given names
Issue #1204
new
As part of the TISA use case review there is a suggestion that a more tightly defined structure for given name could be created.
There was discussion about given name being an array, some discussion of whether middle names were just given names and also whether there should/could be a preferred given name

Shouldn’t this be a structure for all names, rather than just ‘given name’?
We already have the following:
OIDC Core
- name
- given_name
- family_name
- middle_name
- nickname
- preferred_username
OIDC IDA
- birth_family_name
- birth_given_name
- birth_middle_name
- also_known_as
could be part of a name in some cultures?
- salutation
- title
Would a structured Name array replace the above? or just be for historical names with to/from dates, perhaps as an extension as Nat says?

The naming scheme is very culturally dependent and if we want to go into there, perhaps it would be better to be left to the extensions.
