Using standard alphabetical filing rules (surname first, then first name, then middle initial), which name should be filed SECOND? • Rosario de Guzman • Rosario E. de Guzman • Juan D. de Leon • Juan L. Ramos • Benjamin H. Ramirez

  1. Juan D. de Leon
  2. Benjamin H. Ramirez
  3. Rosario E. de Guzman
  4. Juan L. Ramos

Answer

C. Rosario E. de Guzman

Solution

Indexed for filing: (1) DE GUZMAN, Rosario; (2) DE GUZMAN, Rosario E.; (3) DE LEON, Juan D.; (4) RAMIREZ, Benjamin H.; (5) RAMOS, Juan L. Alphabetical filing compares names unit by unit: surname first, then first name, then middle initial. Surname prefixes (de, del, de la, delos, San, Santa, Mac) and hyphenated surnames are treated as one unit, ignoring spaces and hyphens (e.g., de la Cruz is filed as DELACRUZ). An initial, or a missing middle initial, comes before a full name or initial beginning with the same letter (nothing before something). The second name is Rosario E. de Guzman.
