Should this be a pipe delimited list?
Should there be recommendations on the script used?

  • For example, if you normally write your name in Japanese Kanji, should you put your name in Kanji script here or in the name property? This is not an alternative name, but the same name in a different script.

alternate means alternative in North America, but it doesn't in the rest of the English speaking world.
This could lead to confusion.
