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
