Note

A roleName may be distinguished from an addName by virtue of the fact that, like a title, it typically exists independently of its holder.

Example
<persName>
 <forename>William</forename>
 <surname>Poulteny</surname>
 <roleName>Earl of Bath</roleName>
</persName>
Example
<p>The <roleName role="solicitor_general">S.G.</roleName> is the only national public official,
including the Supreme Court justices, required by statute to be “learned in the law.”</p>
Example
<p>
 <persName ref="#NJF">
  <roleName role="solicitor_general">Solicitor General</roleName> Noel J. Francisco</persName>,
representing the administration, asserted in rebuttal that there was nothing to disavow (...)
<persName ref="#NJF">Francisco</persName> had violated the scrupulous standard of candor about the facts and
the law that <roleName role="solicitor_general">S.G.s</roleName>, in Republican and Democratic administrations
alike, have repeatedly said they must honor.
