 * name
 	* first: The legislator's _recognizable_ first name. Many people go by a different name than their legal first name, often their legal middle name, and our approach is to ensure that our first + last name fields combine to a recognizable name of the legislator. Normally we'll follow the name as it appears on House.gov or Senate.gov (and bioguide.congress.gov), which follows the legislator's own preference for how they want to be named in official places. However, in some cases the legislator goes by a first name that is merely a common short or informal form of their legal first name (e.g. Chris vs Christopher), and while they may prefer the informal name, we may use their longer legal first name because they would be recognizable by their legal name. If they sign official documents (e.g. letters to agencies, FEC filings) using their longer legal first name, we would use their legal first name and put their preferred shorter name in the `nickname` field. When legislators go by a first initial and middle name, we set the `first` name field to the initial (one character plus a period).
