Unicode rulez...
Yes indeed...
Instead of using the English spelling of my firstname on Facebook - Ian - I dot the first letter so it becomes İan. English speakers don't generally notice but I am learning Turkish and I am part of a few Turkish-speaking Facebook groups.
Unfortunately, LAN is a rude word in Turkish and Turks see my firstname and it causes them great amusement. After the sixth time it stopped being funny to me... Strangely, whilst English speakers pay no attention to the dot, Turkish speakers see it completely differently and don't associate it in the same way so it solves that problem but does mean I need to be careful with code that reads names from Facebook - which at least one of our site logins does.
