I tried Big Caslon to see if I could get it to work. No dice. Very strange.
I see too that Family Name is more consistent when I tried various fonts - good find. I tried specifying a font-variant rule and though it is listed in the CSS Properties list, I can’t seem to change it from ’normal’. And yes, Edwardian Script is quite fancy for numbers, but tough to read text at regular sizes, impressive looking it is though!
