Questions about umlauts
I've noticed, over the years, products that try to class themselves up by adding umlauts over a letter in their brand name. Häagen-Dazs, Frusen Glädjé, and some crappy smoothie I had in the Orlando airport come to mind. I wondered if I could get more respect in my life if I added an umlaut or two to my name: Bärry Gìlbêrt. Wow, this guy must be from Europe! Let's give him a raise!
This made me wonder what would happen if I tried to change my name legally to include these new-fangled Euro-thingies. Could the State of Colorado name-changing infrastructure handle it? Or would it go into their system as someone changing their name to the same thing?
Hmm, another rainy day project for my list.
