    Name Fields?

    The name field can be further broken down into FirstName, MiddleInitial, and LastName. Why would we want to break out a FullName into three separate fields?

    Homework ?

    Just check some normalisation article on the web to see the reasons (there are at least 2) to use such a breakdown.
