I've found the online AIS DBs often have difficulty searching names
containing punctuation marks as well. When I want to search such a name,
I either search only the word(s) within the name that contain(s) no
punctuation (such as DAY or DELIGHT as in the above examples) or I search
the punctuated word and use the wildcard (*) to signify the punctuation
(such as VALENTINE* or NOREEN*). The latter tactic doesn't work for me
at Mallorn, however.
