Hi there, if you remove the first name from your display options and only show preferred name and repeat the first name in preferred where they don't have a different one then that would do it.

Hello Angela, I am not seeing this change on the front end faculty directory. For example, see the faculty/staff directory here: https://www.buckley.org/about/people--contacts/faculty--staff-directory?letter=T Look at Steven (First Name) Steve (Preferred Name) Totland or Elizabeth (First Name) Lisa (Preferred Name) Turchan.

Hi all, I show that we released curriculum details directory displaying preferred name when it exists otherwise first name on 9/1. Can you confirm if this is somewhere different you're talking about or if we're all set on this?

Hey Cathy! There is actually a way to remove the quotations around the nickname in the Affinity style. This KB Article outlines the steps for you. 

It would be great to have the nickname not display in quotation marks within the website style function as well. I don't understand why anyone would ever want to list the nickname in quotation marks on a website anyway.

Yes! This would be super helpful as we include teachers' full names on the back end. 

This would be amazing! Some teachers go by totally different nicknames but some don't have nicknames. It'd be great if we could choose for nicknames to appear and, if someone doesn't have a nickname, to display their first name instead.
