Another anecdote.
Colleague last name: O'Donnell. You can already see where this is going.
Bonus points: has an email address as "FirstName.O'Donnell"@domain.com which basically works in <1% of the sites though it's completely legal, just because nobody cares about specs. Obviously he has other email addresses. The good thing is he gets 0 spam in that inbox.
- soneil 6y agoI had a similar email address for many years. I kept putting in tickets asking if we could change it, or at least create an alias sans-apostrophe, but never got a reply. Eventually they came to me and asked if I'd mind changing it. I pointed out I'd requested this roughly 10 times by that point, and we discovered their ticket system had been eating it. For bonus points, I'm in Ireland, the one place on earth you'd expect o'names to be handled gracefully.
