Paypal refuses to deliver online purchases to UK addresses containing "Isis"

https://boingboing.net/2016/05/23/paypal-refuses-to-deliver-onli.html

        A resident of Isis Close was unable to buy a sewing kit online
        because Paypal kept rejecting the transaction.  After speaking
        to Paypal customer service, they determined that Paypal would
        not allow any purchase to an address containing the string
        "Isis."
