# initiatorNameComponents

The name of the person who initiates the collaboration.

## Declaration

```swift
var initiatorNameComponents: PersonNameComponents? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The app that initiates a collaboration sets the initiatorNameComponents to allow the user to confirm the components before the system begins the collaboration. The value of the components will not be transmitted to recipients, and is nil before the system initiates a collaboration.
