Slightly OT but trying to look up friends names using Android auto speech recognition whilst driving. I have two Austrian friend "Viktor" and "Patric". If I say. "Hey google, call Viktor" google says. "Sorry you have no Victor in your phone book. Same with Patric. "Sorry you have no Patrick" in your phone book. I'm surprised that there is not even basic scoring done when looking up names in the phone book with the most likely one offered.

*EDIT* I just found a solution to this problem. https://support.google.com/assistant/thread/559644?hl=en&msg... You can supply a phonetic name and this helps google match. This seems a bit low tech though.
