This template is used in definitions for given names. The content is generated by Module:names.

|1= (required)
Language code; see Wiktionary:List of languages. The parameter |lang= is a deprecated synonym; please do not use. If this is used, all numbered parameters move down by one.
|2= or |gender=
gender: male, female or unisex; if any other gender is specified, the template adds a tracking template.
|or=
2nd gender: male or female
|from=, |from2=, |from3=, etc.; or |3=, |4=, |5=, etc.
Source of name: a language name (not a code), such as French or Gascon (etymology-only languages are recognized and allowed); a family name such as Germanic languages; surnames, place names, or coinages; or a language code + term such as de:Ulrich, ru:А́ня or non:bjǫrn. You can specify glosses, transliterations, alternative forms, equivalent forms, etc. inline using a syntax like |from=non:bjǫrn<t:bear> to specify a gloss for an Old Norse term. You can also specify multiple languages or terms separated by < (which must have spaces around it) to indicate a chain of derivation. An example is |from=Latin < Ancient Greek < Biblical Hebrew to indicate a name derived from Latin, in turn from Ancient Greek, and in turn from Biblical Hebrew. Another example is |from=fr:Édouard < en:Edward to indicate a name (e.g. ජර්මානු Eduard) derived from ප්‍රංශ Édouard, which in turn comes from ඉංග්‍රීසි Edward. This is documented in more detail below. See below for more examples.
|dimform=, |dimform2=
Specify diminutive forms of this name, when the lemma is the main form of the name. This is conceptually the opposite of |dim=, |dim2=, etc., which are used when the lemma itself is a diminutive, to indicate the main form. You can specify transliterations, alternative forms, English equivalents and other modifiers inline, as described below.
|varform=, |varform2=
Specify variant forms of this name, when the lemma is the main form of the name. This is conceptually the opposite of |var=, |var2=, etc., which are used when the lemma itself is a variant form, to indicate the main form. You can specify transliterations, alternative forms, English equivalents and other modifiers inline, as described below.
|usage=
Parameter indicating the usage of this name, e.g. modern or African-American.
|meaning=, |meaning2=, |meaning3=, etc.
One or more meanings of the name.
|dim=, |dim2=, |dim3=, etc.; or |diminutive=, |diminutive2=, |diminutive3=, etc.
Main form(s), if the lemma is a diminutive. You can specify transliterations, English-equivalent names and other modifiers inline using e.g. |dim=מרים<tr:Miryem> to specify a manual transliteration, |dim=Cäcilie<eq:Cecilia> to specify an English equivalent. This is documented in more detail below.
|eq=, |eq2=, |eq3=, etc.
Equivalent name in English or some other language, for use in foreign-language entries. To specify an equivalent name in a language other than English, precede the name with the language code of the language followed by a colon, e.g. de:Katrina or ru:Ка́тя. You can specify specify transliterations, alternative forms and other modifiers inline using e.g. |eq=ru:Изабе́лла<tr:Izabɛ́lla> to specify a Russian equivalent name with manual transliteration. This is documented in more detail below.
|xlit=, |xlit2=, |xlit3=, etc.
Transliterated name in English, for use in foreign-language entries. You can specify alternative forms and other modifiers inline, as described below.
|var=, |var2=, |var3=, etc.
If the lemma is a variant form, the main form(s) that this name is a variant of. You can specify transliterations, alternative forms, English equivalents and other modifiers inline using e.g. |var=Theresa<eq:Teresa> to specify a variant with specified English equivalent. This is documented in more detail below.
|m=, |m2=, |m3=, etc.
The masculine equivalent(s) of this name. You can specify transliterations, alternative forms, English equivalents and other modifiers inline, as described below.
|f=, |f2=, |f3=, etc.
The feminine equivalent(s) of this name. You can specify transliterations, alternative forms, English equivalents and other modifiers inline, as described below.
|A=
Override the initial indefinite article; see below.
|sort=
What to sort by (in the generated categories) if not the pagename. Generally only needed for Japanese.

Comments:

  • Note the difference between equivalent and transliterated names. For example, the Russian name Михаил (Mixail) has transliterated name Mikhail and equivalent name Michael.
  • The module automatically determines whether to use initial a or an depending on the first following word (and knows that unisex should use a even though it begins with a vowel). The initial indefinite article is normally capitalized when the language specified by |1= is English, and lowercase otherwise. This is consistent with the general format of definitions in Wiktionary, where English-language terms are normally defined using long, sentence-style definitions that begin with a capital letter and end with a period (full stop), but foreign-language terms are defined using short glosses that are formatted with an initial lowercase letter and no final period/full stop. Both the case of the initial article and whether it is a or an can be overridden with the |A= parameter.
