Portuguese to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs / Referring to the person being registered

Portuguese term or phrase: Registando

This is a birth record - Assento de Nascimento (PT/PT).
The word REGISTANDO appears at the top of the first set of fields, which refer to the child being registered (name, surname etc.) I assume it means "the person being registered", but perhaps it literally means "Registering"...in which case, would that be the correct term to put? The next groups of fields are entitled: PAI, MÃE, followed by their details.
Thanks in advance.

Notes to answerer

Asker: LOL... Yes, I guess it's kind of obvious really, but I just wondered if there was some kind of legalese term. I suspect "child's name" will cover it though. Thanks.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks - tricky one. It seems that registrant can mean 'one who is registered', depending on what dictionary you use. Oxford firmly says "one who registers", which is how I had always thought of it, so it wouldn't cover a baby's birth cert. US dictionaries seem to offer the two options. If you go to Thesaurus it only relates to academic-type registration. Ho-hum...
