Request: use subject's full name instead of nickname about hh_extended_family HOT 7 CLOSED

This is a tab, so you can see his full name at the top of the screen. The main idea of this module is to concentrate on the members of the extended family. When I saw the full name of the proband 9 times repeated, my opinion was to use a nice short name like the nickname or the Rufname or the first of the given names instead of the full name in order to show the name, but have it less dominant.

Maybe I will allow the admin to choose what he likes.

If I may I agree with @hartenthaler, i.e. not full name.
But there is a tiny bug: if there is a Name prefix it is shown as a name:

Thanks for taking care. I understand the motivation, but at least in my data the nicknames are often from the subject's childhood and sound a bit funny or even inappropriate, especially when mentioned so often on a single page. In my example I have

1 NAME Edward Todd* LASTNAME
2 NICK Toddy

Maybe use something like
"Edward Todd has ..." with Todd underlined or
"Todd has ..." or
simply remove these summary lines which only repeat what we already see in the tables with the respective colors and numbers.

@jpretiered: yes this is a bug that has to be fixed.

@reteP-riS: ok, in the first step I will prefer Rufname as the highest priority instead of nickname; and I'm thinking about making this an option.

• Rufame is preferred more than nickname
