Nickname(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Nickname(3) NAME Lingua::EN::Nickname - Genealogical nickname matching (Liz=Beth) SYNOPSIS use Lingua::EN::Nickname; # Equivalent first names? $score= nickname_eq( $firstn_0, $firstn_1 ); # Full, expanded, name(s) @roots= nickroot( $firstn ); DESCRIPTION Nicknames, alternate spellings, and alternate etymological derivations make checking first name equivalence nearly impossible. This module will tell you that 'Maggie', 'Peg', and 'Margaret' are all probably the same name.
