[Huppie]

My first name starts with the 'letter' (digraph, actually [0]) IJ.

I have a standard email I send to companies not honoring the only correct Dutch spelling of my name and/or initials.

The GDPR makes it mandatory for companies to correctly process your personal details so while it can take a while sometimes it's gotten a lot better over the years.

In your case (assuming you live in the EU) there's plenty of precedent to send a standard email like that too. Even banks have been forced kicking and screaming to fix it [1].
