Names
Most records, be they for individuals, machines, or organizations
will have a name field; those that do not will display "[No name]"
in their record output. For individuals, the name is in last-first
order, with any title coming at the end:
Smith, John
Smith, John Q.
Smith, John Q., III
Other records typically have name fields like:
Smith College
Smith & James Co.
You may specify any part of a name up to a space or comma, it will
match everything starting with with that target: "Smith" would match
all of the above records. "Smith, John" would find those three
people above and plenty more. Additionally, "Smith, J" can be used
to find all Smiths with a first initial of 'J'.
Don't forget about partial searches. A partial search on the name
field is often what will find the record you're looking for. Refer
to the OVERVIEW section for details.
