Burmese Names
How naming works in Myanmar — order, inheritance, particles, and the names Foundry's own data sees most often, backed by a live parser.
Naming conventions in Myanmar
Burmese personal names are traditionally not paired with an inherited family name at all.
Honorifics, not surnames
"U" (Mr., for adult men), "Daw" (Ms., for adult women), "Ko" and "Ma" (for younger men and women) are prefixed in everyday use but aren't part of the legal name
U Thant (Thant is the actual given name; "U" is the honorific)
Foundry recognizes these as honorifics/titles, keeping them separate from the name itself rather than misreading "U" as a first name.
