Motivation[edit]

I think it would be good to be able to link more kinds of gendered names/titles than just the given name property and surname properties allow. At the moment there is an issue for how to handle Roman nomina, praenomina and cognomina, which did not work the same way as modern given names or family names do. This has been discussed on the talk page of the given name property before.StarTrekker (talk) 06:27, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
