"FNS", which stands for Full Name Sorting, is used in sortable tables so that names are sorted alphabetically by last name instead of first.

Usage

code	yields
{{fns|Jimmy|Wales}}	Wales, JimmyJimmy Wales
{{fns|Jimmy|Wales|link=no}}	Wales, JimmyJimmy Wales
{{fns|George|Washington|(inventor)}}	Washington, GeorgeGeorge Washington
{{fns|George|Washington|(inventor)|link=no}}	Washington, GeorgeGeorge Washington

When a table is sorted by name, those names would appear under W instead of J or G.
