: Re: Characters with apostrophe names I have created a world, and one of the cultures has mainly apostrophe names - Vax'Ildan, Vex'Ahlia, Soih'Ym... How would this work grammatically - possessive and
As far as possessives, nothing should change provided the apostrophe that is part of the name does not appear as the final character in the name:
Vex'Ahlia's coat would be fine, but
A name like Sov'Yk' (not one of your examples, but just for argument's sake) would present its own problems.
(I would prefer to see Sov'Yk's shirt over Sov'Yk''s shirt, for example.)
As far as nicknames, you should be free to create variations on the character's name that sound natural.
