      Name input should exclusively be an infinitely sized canvas, got it.

        Falsehoods programmers believe about names:

          1. Names are representable using an n-dimensional infinite canvas. Nobody has a name requiring an (n+1)-dimensional representation.

      One of my financial accounts wouldn’t let me transfer money to another because my name wasn’t exactly the same on that account.

      Alright alright but surely people’s names are diverse enough such that no million people share the same name.

      Who thinks that?

      There’s about 5,000 people working at the organization I work at and there’s loads of people who have the same name, first and last.
