我正在设计一个数据库表,问自己这个问题:名字字段应该多长?

谁有最常见的字段(如名字、姓氏和电子邮件地址)的合理长度的列表?

Just looking though my email archives, there are a number of pretty long "first" names (of course what is meant by first is variable by culture). One example is Krishnamurthy - which is 13 letters long. A good guess might be 20 to 25 letters based on this. Email should be much longer since you might have firstname.lastname@somedomain.com. Also, gmail and some other mail programs allow you to use firstname.lastname+sometag@somedomain.com where "sometag" is anything you want to put there so that you can use it to sort incoming emails. I frequently run into web forms that don't allow me to put in my full email address without considering any tags. So, if you need a fixed email field maybe something like 25.25+15@20.3 in characters for a total of 90 characters (if I did my math right!).

编辑:增加了一些间距

我刚刚查询了美国数百万客户的数据库。

名字的最大长度为46。我猜是50个。(当然,其中超过25岁的只有500个,而且都是数据导入导致该领域出现额外垃圾的情况。) 姓与名相似。 电子邮件地址最多62个 字符。大部分是较长的 实际上是电子邮件列表吗 用分号分隔的地址。 街道地址最多95 字符。长点的都是 有效的。 最大城市长度为35。

对于美国人来说,这应该是一个不错的统计分布。如果你需要考虑本土化问题,数值可能会有很大差异。

这些可能对某人有用;

youtube max channel length = 20
facebook max name length   = 50
twitter max handle length  = 15
email max length           = 255

是varchar,对吧?所以不管你用50个还是25个,为了安全起见,最好用50个,我认为我见过的最长的是19个左右。姓更长
