  3. Let's see if this #Feedback submitted through #Niantic's support bot for #HarryPotter #WizardsUnite will make their #MinistryID #namingPolicy more inclusive by allowing the use of a #mononym without workarounds such as including a period.

    a couple of remarks about the order form:
    • 'cartrdges' is missing an 'i'
    • it mentions UE countries. I'm guessing that's perhaps correct in French (where it's probably something like Union Europeàn), but my first assumption was United (Arabic) Emirates, rather than the EU.
    • Surname and Name fields really should just be a single Name field, to accommodate people who use a #mononym (whether that's their real name or their online handle).

  6. @Algot and it's not just celebrities or other people who have changed their name to a #mononym.
    Javanese people, such as Sukarno and Suharto, have a single name since birth: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javanese

    I'm surprised I haven't seen #mononym mentioned yet. Especially since registration forms often assume that people have a first name and last name, making it rather difficult for them to register with their preferred or even actual name.
    (This was a major issue in the early days of #GooglePlus for instance, which made #nymwars a rather trending topic.)
