The few commonly believed falsehoods which are missing in this list at the moment of me loading the page with it:
n. Names can be included in any sentence in the same form as user entered them.
For example any language like Russian where names decline breaks it.
n+1. Names are grammatically nouns
In Russian last names and patronimic/matronimic names are usually adjectives
n+2. Any person's name can be disclosed to people who know them by their other name.
For example if some LGBTQIA person has homo/bi/trans+-phobic relatives they financially depend on then such disclosure can be a catastrophic outing.
- Merrill 7y agoNames are associated with roles, not with persons. This is particularly true for prefix and suffixes. Mayor Lyndon Smersh and Lyndon Smersh, Esq. are different roles as politician and lawyer of the underlying person Lyndon Smersh. Many women also have multiple names, e.g. a married name used socially and their original name used professionally. When dealing with persons, it's necessary not to confuse their roles.
