I was told you needed to use fn, and n when you wanted to split the name up into its various parts. Here is the markup for my hCard, in which I wanted my middle initial. And the parsers handle it just fine.
<div class="vcard"> <p><img class="photo" src=""http://cdevroe.com/media/images/cdevroe.jpg">http://cdevroe.com/media/images/cdevroe.jpg" alt="photo" /></p> <a class="url" href=""http://cdevroe.com">http://cdevroe.com/"><span class="given-name">Colin</span> <span class="additional-name">D.</span> <span class="family-name">Devroe</span></a> </div> <p><a class="email pref" href=""mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> [EMAIL PROTECTED]</a></p> <p><span class="street-address">P.O. Box 61</span></p> <p><span class="locality">Clifford</span>, <span class="region">Pa</span> <span class="postal-code">18413</span></p> </div> <div class="tel">(570) 222-6546</div> </div>

That's my read on it.

authoritative rules on whether your proposal is correct? I just always
presumed that you needed FN... Didn't realize that you'd use N if you
split up the name... seems counter-intuitive I guess even if it
follows the standard.
