My hierarchical glossary is supposed to look like:

McCarty
William Henry...........34
Maclyn..................56
Darren..................12

Billy the Kid see William Henry McCarty

The LaTeX code fragment:

\newglossaryentry{src:McCarty}{
name={McCarty},
description=}

\newglossaryentry{src:William Henry McCarty}{
name={William Henry},
parent={src:McCarty},
description=}

\newglossaryentry{src:Billy the Kid}{
name={Billy the Kid},
see={src:William Henry McCarty},
description=}

However, this will get me:

McCarty
William Henry...........34
Maclyn..................56
Darren..................12

Billy the Kid see William Henry

Changing the name of the relevant entry to William Henry McCarty gives me:

McCarty
William Henry McCarty..34
Maclyn..................56
Darren..................12

Billy the Kid see William Henry McCarty

What I am looking for is some way to add an alternative name to the see
key, which doesn't seem to be possible. Any help is appreciated.
