Usage Advice

Use when

Use for a direct, co-equal person-to-PersonName bearing where audience, register, evidence, and context do not need their own node.

Avoid when

Avoid using this as a display winner, legal-name shortcut, or provenance-bearing assertion; use NameUsage or statement metadata when period, authority, audience, or suppression must be explicit.

How to use

Assert one hasName triple per co-equal PersonName; carry validity, displayable false, source, or confidence on the statement layer, or promote to gmeow:NameUsage when the bearing itself must be a relator.

Examples

ex:patrick a gmeow:Person; gmeow:hasName ex:patrickLatinName, ex:patrickHanName.
