Is it true that no longer is a name, once shared with the temple starting with baptism, kept with the temple for all of the remaining ordinances?

    @LegacyUser When the request for ordinances for an individual is Shared with the Temple, it goes into a database from which all temples draw needed ordinances. Since the ordinances are selected and not the individual names, each of the ordinances for that individual can be performed in a different temple. My nephew was baptized in an African temple, confirmed in California and received Initiatory and Endowment in 2 other temples. Although this process may seem awkward, it actually helps to speed the work as a record does not sit in a file in one temple while others have no records to be used by patrons who do not have family records to use.

    Short Answer: 'NO', not that I am aware of, provided you "Shared" ALL.

    .

    Question: Where did you 'see'/'hear' such?

    .

    As far as I was aware; and, I stand corrected, if I an wrong; but, ...

    .

    IF, you "Share" ALL of the Work with the "Temple System"; THEN, ALL the Work remains in the "Temple System", to be undertaken, in order, in due course/time; but, there is a (good) "Caveat'.

    .

    Just about ANY Work, that is "Share[d] with the Temple System" can NOW be "Requested" by another Member User/Patron, if they so desire to undertake responsibility for undertaking that Work.

    .

    That Member User/Patron, has x90 Days, to DO the Work, after that x90 Days "Expires", if the the Work is NOT done, then the Work REVERTS BACK to the "Temple System".

    .

    Whereas ...

    .

    I think that you are mixing-up is that ...

    .

    We have been advised that, the "Cards" will NO LONGER be RETURNED to us, at/by the "Temple", after EACH of the "Ordinances" is undertaken; and, that we will have to REQUEST that the "Temple" PRINT a NEW "Card", after EACH "Ordinance" is undertaken, if you are doing all of the Work, on the same day, at the same "Temple"; otherwise, if you are doing the Work, over a period of time, you will have to PRINT a NEW "Card", each time you go to a "Temple" for the next "Ordinance".

    .

    As an aside ...

    .

    Here are some "Knowledge Articles" in 'FamilySearch':

    I Hope this helps.

    . . . of course once the cards are printed - the cards are printed - and the name on the card will be what is used at the temple if you are the one taking the card.

    But as far as I know names can be changed and card reprinted with new names.

    Names can even be changed after the temple work is done - without the temple work being done again/
