    NBnobilityIn Europe and Asia, there are still people with nobility titles (aristocrats). German "von" is generally a nobility title, not a mere voorvoegsel. Others are "Earl of" or "His Majesty King of..." etc. Rarely used nowadays, but some systems do keep track of this.

    VVvoorvoegselA Dutch "voorvoegsel" is something like "van" or "de" that might have indicated nobility in the past but no longer so. Similar prefixes exist in other languages such as Spanish, French or Portugese.
    ADadoptedThe name the person was given at the time of adoption.
    BRbirthA name that a person had shortly after being born. Usually for family names but may be used to mark given names at birth that may have changed later.
    SPspouseThe name assumed from the partner in a marital relationship (hence the "SP"). Usually the spouse's family name. Note that no inference about gender can be made from the existence of spouse names.
    CLcallmeA callme name is (usually a given name) that is preferred when a person is directly addressed.
    INinitialIndicates that a name part is just an initial. Initials do not imply a trailing period since this would not work with non-Latin scripts. Initials may consist of more than one letter, e.g., "Ph." could stand for "Philippe" or "Th." for "Thomas".
    TITLEtitleIndicates that a prefix or a suffix is a title that applies to the whole name, not just the adjacent name part.

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
