>Does the web site have any idea how rude it is to claim that my last name contains invalid characters? Clearly not
That is one of the milder error messages. I have an accented character in my first name and run up against this all the time. I used to screengrab and collect them, but it would have been easier to collect the sites which didn't object.
In the rudeness stakes, I think my favourite so far has been:
"Please enter a valid name"
although there have been plenty of others, nearly as insulting. I see the post is from 2010. I'm still running into this problem today.

I guess that the hyphen is not the only problem that the author encounters with automated systems.
