I’m surprised there’s no mention of the convention of using all caps for surnames. Being able to read the letters and your company name and preferred pronoun and favorite subjects and twitter handle is not worth much if I can’t even tell which is your given name.
Hello ... Mr. Brian?
- ghaff 8y agoYou presumably have your own badge so you know what the convention is for a given show.
- ken 8y agoSo I'm supposed to check my name on my own badge, when meeting someone else, to be able to parse their name correctly? And I should assume that the organizers printed surnames (rather than last names) in the same relative position, despite this being wrong for a lot of people? We already have a well established international convention on how to write names. Why would anyone create their own?
