Introduction
This mod shows nicknames after first name/s, for example, Johannes Jacobus "John" SMITH, or after the surname, for example, Johannes Jacobus SMITH "John"
The display of the nickname is controlled by a configurable option - parentheses, square brackets, double quotes or single quotes. Defaults to double quotes. The position of the nickname is controlled by another option - between first names and surname, or after surname. Defaults to between first names and surname. Display of nickname for living people can be controlled by a third parameter. Defaults to all people.
The mod is made to one of the core modules in TNG and therefore applies throughout the site, with minimal modification to scripts.
