| Sep 8, 2016 at 14:20 | comment | added | Suipaste | @RemcoGerlich The external API is poorly made. From the sounds of things my best bet to allow anything through but with warnings for strange looking data then handle exceptions from the external API possibly with a message about the value which was entered not being valid on the external system. | |
| Sep 8, 2016 at 14:08 | comment | added | RemcoGerlich | Doing this perfectly still won't guarantee not crashing the external API, if they do it badly. | |

The stuff about Latin characters was causing discussion to get off topic so I removed it.

Helped differentiate between question about multiple names e.g. Spanish style

| Sep 8, 2016 at 13:23 | comment | added | Suipaste | To be clear if you read the deed poll guidelines non Latin characters are allowed but they won't be printed correctly. | |
| Sep 8, 2016 at 13:13 | comment | added | paj28 | Does it have to be a fully automated approve/deny? You could have a setup that allows names that are definitely ok, and pops up an "are you sure?" warning for others. | |
| Sep 8, 2016 at 13:07 | comment | added | Jörg W Mittag | Only Latin characters? Seriously? That's going to exclude a significant portion of Welsh, Scottish, and Irish Britons, let alone immigrants or people who married immigrants … or even descendants of the French Conquerors. What about Róisín Murphy, the lead singer of Moloko or Siobhán Donaghy of the Sugababes? | |
