Will preferred names be used on badges and Swapcard? The registration form is a bit confusing as it doesn’t display the user’s preferred name, so while using the form it’s not apparent which name will be used (though I remember this being stated on the application form).
Name badges should have preferred names yes — this is the first time we’re doing preferred names so if there are any technical issues you’ll be able to pick up a blank badge at the event itself and write whatever name you like on it.
Preferred names won’t go onto Swapcard by default but we’re looking into a way to make this happen (but anyone can change their own name on Swapcard if they like).
