Francois$ ne récupérera que les François, et pas les Francoise, ni les prénoms composés à partir de Francois et Francoise.
...
why would they filter on firstnames: Francoise, and combined firstnames Francois et Francoise?

who is narrow minded now?

I know. I have also within the same credits both Francois and François, not to mention I have also seen FRANÇOIS, which I beleiev would be incorrect under French Rules of Capitalization.

FRANÇOIS is not at all incorrect, it was just impossible to use it in the past with printing and old typewriters. The habit have been taken  for centuries and are still in use, but FRANÇOIS is perfectly correct.

I can enter several accented characters (éèà) with a simple key stoke on my keyboard. And I can enter the rest of the accented characters of ISO-Latin (êâõò...) with the help of combo keys (two key strokes). But I can enter Ç only by knowing and entering its character code using the numeric key pad. The same is actually true for the German sharp ess (ß). Both characters are not used where I live, even though both French and German are official languages in this country.

EDIT: just to make it clear: I can type ç with a single key stroke only Ç is impossible.

I know.... we send everybody post cards and request them to fill them out, including BY and various name variants and what THEIR choice would be for Common Name. Who wants to pick the bill on the postage...both ways...of course.         Then, of course, we have the data entry once all the cards are returned, I know the perfect person to do this part of the work, surfeur51. 

I have a feeling we would get some very interesting responses.

Who was it who suggested to have a copy of the birth certificate to prove the correct parsing of a name? If my memory is correct, it wasn't Surfeur51.

I always had a problem with his story: FRANCOIS = François!
I wanted FRANCOIS=François, and Gerri said FRANCOIS=François

In my memory we (we = most of us) came to the conclusion that from a global point of view FRANCOIS can be François or Francois depending on the actual person behind the credit. I think even Gerri wasn't saying something different.

EDIT: BTW in my opinion it is more than rude to call somebody out in the subject of the thread.

Although I can't say for sure what the outcome should be, I do know that Francois is to be pronounced as 'Frankwa'. A "C" is always a "K" in France, no exeptions. Firthermore I have never heard someone being called Francois in that manner. That being said: I'm not French so it might aswell be pronounced as a "C" in certain dialects or something.

To be precise, a C is pronounced K when followed by a, o, u, and S when followed by e, i, y

caleçon (panties) = "Kalesson"
decide = "desside"
France = "Fransse"
François = "Franssoa"
décalcomanie ="déKalKomani"

He's totally 100% correct.

I am sorry but some people have to stop the ridiculous personal attacks and grudges. This whole thread is nothing more than a personal attack and a poor one at that.
