:::Searching Wikipedia for "Early life of" brings up more examples. Others use an alternate title style that puts the person's first and last name firstfor example, Abraham Lincoln's early life and career. I think a new article offers a remedy to the overflow problem, which does concern me, as despite substantial evolution of text in the last year and a half that I have been here, this article's size has remained stable in the recommended "32k of readable prose" range until quite recently.
