No, no, no! You cannot do that, unless you have an exhaustive list of "valid 
mononyms" -- and you're still deluding yourself into the assumption that you 
can code something that can recognize a string as a valid name. You cannot do 
that. I cannot do that. Nobody can do that. We must stop trying to do that. 
It's a delusion with bad consequences.

Nobody can code a valid name recognition algorithm; we should not try that. 
It's better to have the occasional mistake in our git history than to go down 
this path.
