Using standard alphabetical filing rules (surname first, then first name, then middle initial), which name should be filed SECOND? • Emmanuel R. Santoso • Aurora T. Panganiban • Eduardo T. Santos • Victoria P. Mercado • A. N. Panganiban

  1. Aurora T. Panganiban
  2. Victoria P. Mercado
  3. A. N. Panganiban
  4. Eduardo T. Santos

Answer

C. A. N. Panganiban

Solution

Indexed for filing: (1) MERCADO, Victoria P.; (2) PANGANIBAN, A. N.; (3) PANGANIBAN, Aurora T.; (4) SANTOS, Eduardo T.; (5) SANTOSO, Emmanuel R. Alphabetical filing compares names unit by unit: surname first, then first name, then middle initial. "Nothing comes before something": a surname that matches the beginning of a longer one is filed first (e.g., CRUZ before CRUZADO). 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 A. N. Panganiban.
