Perhaps your form provides a way to upload a glyph, or you need to enable name submittal via floppy disk. https://web.archive.org/web/20181113135727/http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2016/04/princes-legendary-floppy-disk-symbol-font.html https://web.archive.org/web/20181113135727/http://nymag.com/...
- justsomehnguy 2y agoSome peoples use only 1 identifier as a full name. Some peoples use 3 identifiers as a full name but there are peoples with only 2 living with them.
