You write Chris, and then they lock your account because they think you’re fraudulent
My health insurance company did this with my first name. Now when I communicate with them in any way, even a doctor telemedicine visit,I have to pretend my name is Christophe.
Could’ve gone with Hristopher, I guess?
It’s a nickname for Hristorectomy.
I’d love to join a zoom call with a doctor and watching them try to pronounce that.
Finger should work.
Waltuh
Try to rephrase it
~christ
I also love when systems tell me my name is “invalid” because it has a character they don’t like.
Christophe sounds cooler, anyway.
This immediately made me think of Frozen. That’s what having kids does to your brain.

Reminds me of this: Falsehoods Programmers Believe About Names
Name input should exclusively be an infinitely sized canvas, got it.
Falsehoods programmers believe about names:
-
- Names are representable using an n-dimensional infinite canvas. Nobody has a name requiring an (n+1)-dimensional representation.
Strongly resisting the urge to rename myself to the concept of ℂⁿ⁺¹.
How do you spell it? You can’t. Muahahaha
-
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.
