All given names of a person, such as the first name, middle names, maiden name if used as part of the married name, etc.; for example, in the name “John Q. Delancey Public”, the <given-names> would be “John Q. Delancey” and the <surname> would be “Public”.
Care should be taken with multipart names to divide the components into family names (<surname>) and personal names (<given-names>) in a culturally appropriate fashion. For example:
<surname>Llanos De La Torre Quiralte</surname> <given-names>M</given-names> <surname>Gonzalez Martin</surname> <given-names>Josquin</given-names> <surname>Lapeyre</surname> <given-names>Kenneth Pritchard Carnu</given-names> <surname>Ben Gurion</surname> <given-names>David</given-names> <surname>de la Mare</surname> <given-names>Walter John</given-names> <surname>Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa, de</surname> <given-names>Henri Marie Raymond</given-names>
