Erik I would use the method you plan to for recording Anton's full name, make a note about what you have done and why.
Some of the Christening records (not Danish!) I've transcribed make it surprisingly difficult to work out the family name, depending on the way the original record is set out. -- Margaret -----Original Message----- On Behalf Of Erik Pilgaard Vinther I have this one person which was christened 'Anton Marius Sorensen' (documented in the Church records). His father and well as 5 generations before him was christened using both a patronymic name plus the family name Vinther. <snp> Whether the reason for the missing Vinther at Anton's christening was due to a clerical error or some other reason I don't know, but there is no doubt that Anton perceived him self as a Vinther. Therefore I'm inclined to set his primary name as Anton Marius Winther, and his christening name as an AKA name.
