Constituent Record Settings
To ensure the names of individuals appear consistently for all users throughout the web view, such as on records and in lists, admins can set how to display them. For example, you can choose to show middle initials and suffixes and select the punctuation to use with them.
With Alumni Tracking, you can also choose to show class year as part of an individual's name.
Note: These settings affect all constituent records. We recommend you carefully consider changes before you make them, especially if you use third-party integrations.
Tip: To control how names appear in mailings and email messages, use name formats. For more information, see Name Formats
