Which is usually a thing even on local sites for some reason.

Nothing huge ever happened because of my Å name, but it piles up over the years. Biggest issue was when a very confused man tried to check me in at an airport and had no idea how. Took maybe 20-30 minutes and the solution was "AA". Probably not as much manual typing these days, this was 10+ years ago.
