Just get rid of these filters. What exactly are you trying to prevent? It can't possibly help in the real world and these silly examples will just recur. If there's billing associated with it, its easy enough to cross reference the billing account with the "entered names" to check for mismatch. Who exactly is Verizon to determine if the name is valid or not? Probably happens with Ms Null as well. How exactly is a computer meant to know that Aabb isn't real? If I have a credit card or other mechanism, eg drivers license, with that as the name, is there any value whatsoever in that system flagging that as a fake name? Its just poor customer service. I'll be offended, they'll need to apologise. For no real gain. I'd be fascinated to see statistics on the number of times that these filters prevented "wrong doing".

Not sure why I got downvoted. So I'll assume its someone who can't reply. For reasons. For the record, I have an ongoing argument with booking companies seemingly every time I book something. They always misspell my name. Even if I spell it out letter-by-letter. Even if I get them to read it out. I had an ongoing argument with an electricity company and basically got to the point after a few days where I said, "I refuse to pay any bill until my name is spelt correctly." I got a Director of Sales to confirm they'd send me accurate bills. Or else. So yeah, these filters are trash.
