There is one kind of normalisation that I think would be useful though, that is to normalise whitespace. That is trim leading and trailing whitespace, convert all whitespace to space and remove multiple spaces. Otherwise, as someone with a non-trivial surname, I agree. Facebook has always driven me insane in this regard. I don't know if it's still the case, but Facebook used to have this annoying bug where they'd not only capitalise the first letter of my surname (incorrect!), they would then not allow for me to correct it because it seemed to have been treated case insensitively. They don't seem to enforce the capitalisation now since I've created a new account though. I know it was just a bug, but it was so disrespectful somehow.
