I also wish we had a way to include "special"[1] characters in names. My name would have a "ć", so I could never spell it correctly and had to anglicize it. I guess including spaces is a good start, but it would be nice to have the ability to add other characters too. Or, allow some kind of alternative spelling where every character is allowed so that people could actually still type my name using an American keyboard or a Czech one or whatever.

[1] As a developer, I got into the habit of calling non-English letters as "special characters" until someone pointed out that these characters are only "special" to people who don't use them.

There's a good case to be made that in many cases you must be willing to adapt your name to local circumstances. In many cases, the reason for having your name written down is for someone else to be able to read and understand your name.
