This is probably a really, really silly question... but I thought I would be safe rather than sorry since I've been having so much fun with this project!

Most of the images I've received are very straight forward as to what the first, middle and last names are. Mostly viewed as last, first & middle but I came across one that confused me... and made me question each name I'd already keyed. If anyone can give me a quick answer that'd be awesome! Haha.

Are they listed as last, middle & first or last, first & middle?!

I would say last, first and middle, but can you tell us which one confused you, please?

I was confused whether the name was just entirely backwards, such as last, middle & first... but I guess it's common to have two first names!

Thank you!
