> An unlimited amount? Well yes, I believe so. In the vast majority of cases people just have firstname surname, also firstname middlename surname. But in essence they could have 100 middle names; although it's a little unlikely I don't believe there are legal constraints here in the UK.
Pragmatically though - I think I'll go with a minor adaptation(s) of your first solution.. ProposedNames table with the following columns: user_id :integer forename :string midname1 :string midname2 :string midname3 :string midname4 :string midname5 :string surname :string gender :string Really appreciate your other points re how I might handle the form and logic. Got to love railscasts, I'd be nowhere without them, they are truly excellent. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
