0 | CL | Call me | A “call me” name is usually a given name that is preferred when a person is directly addressed. Sometimes known as a nickname
0 | IN | Initial | Indicates that a name part is just an initial. Initials do not imply a trailing period since this would not work with non-Latin scripts. Initials may consist of more than one letter, e.g., "Ph." could stand for "Philippe" or "Th." for "Thomas"
0 | TITLE | Title | Indicates that a prefix or a suffix is a title that applies to the whole name, not just the adjacent name part
