Hi Gary,
If you put the "known as" name in the AKA, you cannot choose to use
it in narrative.
So your narratives will read:
John married
John worked in the railways
If you use the "Quoted Name" you'll get
Paul married
Paul worked in the railways.
AKAs - other names for someone. Quoted Name - the name they were
known by that you wish to use in a report.
Confusion: Nicknames may be both.

The only down side I can see by displaying the name as you do is the
question whether "Paul", in the name John "Paul" Smith, is actually a middle
name or just a 'known as' name.
By displaying it John Paul "Paul" Smith, there is absolutely no question
that Paul is the middle name as well as the 'known as' name.
Personally, I use the latter. But, in the method described in my earlier
email. By placing the 'known as' name in the Alternate Name area of Legacy.
Thinking this was the area designed for such use.
