It won't be in the next release (which is primarily a bug fix/api hook release) but it is something we are going to be adding. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/middle-name-field-needed#post-3495 Fri, 19 Feb 2010 11:34:42 +0000 AtlantaWebDesignGA 3495@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Many times a middle name is legally required. Would be nice to have a checkbox to in the canned Gravity Forms Name field to display First and Last OR First, Middle, Last </p>
