I have found in WordReference English-Greek Dictionary the following sentence:
Harriet Bell is an author who writes under her surname and first initial:H.Bell.
In this sentence,when the author says first means first name.Is this correct?In the phrase 'first name' can I omit the word name?If I say 'Harriet Bell is an author who writes under her surname and first name initial:H.Bell',will it be correct?
