This field contains coded data relating to personal names. Field is mandatory.
A code indicates the gender of the entity identified in field 200.
A code indicates whether the name in field 200 relates to one or more entities.
| a | differentiated personal name The authority record identifies a single identity, because if more entities have the same name, the entity in field 200 is distinguished from other entities of the same name by the addition of qualifying data, e.g.: dates of birth or death, title of nobility, honorifics and terms of address, descriptive epithets, etc. (see examples 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8). |
| b | undifferentiated personal name The authority record may identify several identities because the entity in field 200 cannot be distinguished from other entities of the same name (see examples 3, 6). |
