Eh, I cut and paste. The person you should be worrying about typing it is you, says the person with the 10-dot-3 character domain name. Also spelling it over the phone to customer service droids. And entering it on a smartphone soft keyboard.
Still trying to decide what to rename my Twitter account, since daphne, daphnee, and eftychia are all taken there.
daphne_e? daphneea? dearthur?
ETA: Ooh, and also, because I'm slightly evil like that, it dawns on me to wonder how UTF compliant the birb site is. Like, sure, daphne is taken. But is Δαφνη?
I can certainly see why you might not want to do that. But I'm now curious.
My phone's autocorrupt would eventually learn it, and on a physical keyboard I type quickly enough, but dictating it to people would get annoying.
I was wondering the same thing about using Greek for Twitter, and am quite tempted, but anybody without a Greek keymap installed would have no other option that copy/paste, which would be a problem if they were getting the info off a card or something, instead of email or the web.
I dunno, still kinda tempting ... (And apparently neither Δαφνη nor δαφνη are already claimed.)
