Also, many places have restrictions on what names they will accept. For example, I work in IT at a university. We have a fairly limited set of characters because other characters are known to cause issues with vendor products. Unfortunately, we just don’t really have much of a choice.
Haha yeah. Supply chains for software are a mess (just like most supply chains), and the product with the worst character support will define the limits of everything else :(
Yup. One time we had some person try changing their name to the dragon head emoji. Some systems handled it fine, but a lot of them broke in different and interesting ways. That’s what prompted the restrictions.
I once knew a Thai national with a legal name, through some quirk of the system, legally became Mr. Smith.
First name Mr.
Last name Smith.
Getting him through airports was always an… experience. He was a talented guy though!
