|imagesize=200px
|caption=[[William the Conqueror]], The Duke of Normandy in the [[Bayeux Tapestry]]. The name William became very popular in the English language after the [[Norman Conquest]] of [[1066]] by William the Conqueror.
| pronunciation = wiljəm
| gender = Male
| meaning = ''will + helmet (protection)''

Derived

I am trying to make it so that "Derived" would also show up in the template. For example, when I put in the following,

{{Infobox Given Name Revised
| name = Florence
| image=
| imagesize=
| caption=
| pronunciation=
| gender = Female
| meaning = To flower in the sense of a blossom or prosperous, flourishing
| region = 
| origin = English, French
| related names = Flo (pet name)
| footnotes = 
| derived = '''Latin''', verbs ''floreo'' and ''florens'', and masculine [[Ancient Rome|Roman]] name ''Florentius''
}}

I get this (without 'Derived', look on your right)

even though I tried to put in the "Derived" section while editing the template. Could someone fix it so that "Derived" would show up? NHRHS2010^Talk 20:59, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed it. You basically had it but you have to be careful with the capitilization in these templates. You were using "derived" as a input field, but then you just used "Derived" when you tried to use it as an example. Remember 21:24, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wiktionary box optional?

In this edit the edit comment, make wiktionary box optional, indicates that the display of this infobox is optional. How is this? I want to have it disappear from Khalid (name) as there exists no corresponding Wiktionary article. __meco (talk) 15:51, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

By adding a "| wikt=" (nothing) paramter to the infobox template. -- JHunterJ (talk) 13:05, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Alternate spellings should give an "all names beginning with.." link in addition to the main name.

For example, Julien redirects to Julian, but the infobox only allows one to click for all names beginning with "Julian", it should also have a link for "all names beginning with Julien", via the alternate spellings given in the infobox. 67.5.156.61 (talk) 03:51, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
