Phone keeps changing “Jack” to “Jackie”

I cannot stop my phone from changing Jack (my son’s name) to Jackie every single time I type Jack. It is driving me insane. I changed autocorrect with a filter then reset the keyboard in settings. Nothing has worked.

Dictation errors for specific names on iPhone I am having difficulties with consistent errors that come from dictation. Whenever I say the name “Durango”, which I have just typed in, it dictates “Duran Duran, Durango”. I would like to be able to fix this so I don’t have to correct it every single time. Also, it consistently misspells the name of my wife who has a common name but can be spelled several ways. Now that Siri is more intelligent how do I communicate these issues so that this can be resolved? [Re-Titled By Moderator]

Voice dictation adding an apostrophe S to names When I use voice dictation with someone’s name, it will add an apostrophe S every time. It’s super annoying and it doesn’t seem like Apple knows how to fix this. Does anyone know what I can do besides changing it and hoping my phone will “learn” the correct spelling.

Oh geez. That doesn’t normally happen with my phone. What type of iPhone do you have?

yes! Me too. Always corrects my son Jack’s name to Jackie. So frustrating. Let me know if you figure out the solution.
