What is the correct way to enter unnamed children who have died?

So far, two babies in the same family have passed before their first birthday

Amy Archibald

Just their last name.

FYI

.

Only two (x2), so far ...

I have a number of families with more than that ...

Some died within, Minutes; or, Hours, of birth ...

.

In "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' ...

.

Simple ...

.

IF, an "Infant" DID NOT receive (ie. get given) a 'Given'/'Christian' Name(s); THEN, just leave the "First Name(s)" Field, "BLANK", you CERTAINLY do add/include a "Last Name(s)", in that Field; plus, NO need to include a "Title" such as "Master"; or, "Miss", leave the "Title" Field, "Blank".

.

Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':

.

How should I enter names in Family Tree?

https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-to-enter-names-in-family-tree

.

Where it states (among other things):

Quote

------------------

Avoid invalid words ...

.

Words that are not usually names, such as “not named,” “unnamed,” “Mister,” “Wife,” "twin," or "Son." 

------------------

.

I hope this help
