Template:Indonesian name/doc

This template is a hatnote that can be put at the top of a biographical article to explain to readers that an Indonesian name may not have a family name. Instead, the name may be a series of given names. Alternatively, the second element of the name is a patronymic, that is, the given name of the subject's father.

{{Indonesian name|patronymic=yes|[patronymic name]}}
