My preference is to add events like Title of Nobility , Title Prefix and
Title Suffix as I choose to keep the original name as close as I can to that
with which the person was born. This also allows, with the first option, a
person having multiple Titles as some Royal nobility have multiple

You are quite correct to draw attention to the fact that there was no family
name as such. In the case of Ann of Cleves, I would agree that the most
appropriate surname would be “of Cleves” similar to the use of “D’Harcourt” as
derived from the French meaning “of Harcourt”.

Isn't that one of the big pluses for Legacy? We can tailor it to fit our
needs not the way it works for someone else?

ItI have been unable to find a standard for handling surnames, and I am
wondering if some have a good solution to this problem:
I have many ancestors, like most of use, back in the 14th century and older.

Jenny,
Following your logic detailed below, a doctor of medicine should not have a
suffix of MD or Doctor and an ordained minister of God should not have a
prefix of Rev. You state that since these were inherited at some stage in a
person's life, you would only create an event to cover this.
Omygosh this sounds like Obama care bill passage!

I totally agree with other posters … I’d use “of Cleves” or “von Cleve” as the
last name since there is no standard family “last name” in many German or
English aristocracy.
Incidentally, you may want to verify the “der Freiliche” part … I think that’s
an error. In many sources, including
I was thinking of opening this line of discussion at some time as I have
also pondered how to best handled the vons, van ders, etc in Legacy.
Putting the von in the surname comes out OK in reports (as far as I can

I believe Jenny to be correct. These academic awards and, eg. peerages
awarded during a lifetime, cannot be present at birth in the records as they
were not there in reality. I consider the correct place to be Alt Names, in
conjunction with an Event if wanted.

I think that we should be careful of confusing nick names with real names “The
Lionheart” and “The Terrible” are nick names. We have two English Prime
Ministers William Pitt the Elder and William Pitt the Younger they were both
named “William Pitt”; “the Elder” and “the younger” were nick names
Exactly … that’s the point IO was making

I think you are assuming that the Legacy use of a Title either prefix or
suffix, must be present at birth. From where or how you get to that assumption,
I don't know but this is straight from the Legacy Help file:
