This is crazy. What kind of barbarian doesn't properly format contacts in a standardized and civilized way?!?

If he doesn't change it to "WORTMAN, Jennifer" very soon, that's ground for divorce.

Why not just add name onto Name and surname onto Surname fields?

Of course! But then you still have to sort it the right way™ for my autistic ass to be satisfied ^^

Why, tho? What's the benefit? I'd usually go 'J' for John Doe, though maybe I'm just used to.it

what wackass kind of programs don't let you sort it however you want at the moment?

People do regular maintensnce on their contacts?

I just noticed i've got each name x3 (exports & imports) and some of them last used 15 years ago.

Should have at least a middle initial, if not full middle name. Never know, might meet another Jennifer Wortman one day and it would probably be best to have some way of differentiating between the two. So you don't accidentally schedule a sex appointment with the other one and end up in the awkward position of either needing to cheat on your wife or break an appointment with 0 notice.
