What is another word for fore-names?
Pronunciation: [fˈɔːnˈe͡ɪmz] (IPA) 
"Fore-names" refers to the given name or first name of an individual, which distinguishes them from others. However, there are several synonyms for the term, such as first name, Christian name, given name and baptismal name. The use of the word "first name" is much more universal in many countries worldwide, while the term "Christian name" is more closely associated with specific Christian traditions. Nonetheless, they all mean the same thing - the name that individuals 'go by' and are addressed as, primarily by family members and friends. Using alternative terms is sometimes necessary to avoid repetition or to fit specific cultural contexts.
