Add ADOPTED to g7:enumset-NAME-TYPE #335

Open Jefferson49 opened 1 year ago

Since adoption is a concept, which is already used in several parts of the GEDCOM specification, it should also be available within the name type.

Therefore, ADOPTED should be added as an enum value to g7:enumset-NAME-TYPE

Further possible proposals:

DIVORCED (Name after a divorce) ESTATE (House name, farm name, name after moving into or marrying into a house/farm) RELIGIOUS ( Religious name, name adopted after joining a religious order) UNIFIED (Unified spelling for a family name) VARIANT (Different spelling for a name, also spellings based on other languages such as Latin, French)

In the sandbox branch, PR #349 proposed adding ADOPTED to g7:enumset-NAME-TYPE.
