iOS8: Password displayed on Quick Type

Every time I enter a name or a username on a text field Quick Type suggest me part of my password

lets say my user name is AppleUser and my pass is OrageJuice!2, every time I enter AppleUser Quick Type suggest me OrangeJuice, the worst part is that also suggest me other passwords from other services and old passwords that I already change, I found this while trying to login to an OWA web portal, but it happens on any text inpute, like Notes

iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 8, QuickType

You cannot change the behavior of the way that Quick Type works. As far as I know, there is no way to teach it to unlearn words. It is supposed to make suggestions based on your typing patterns and habits. My suggestion would be to turn it off on the keyboard via Emoticon key or in Settings>General>Keyboard>Predictive>Off.

I think something could be done, then I will just need to enter a name/user name on an iOS8 (owner) device to know the password of a user, to clarify if my password is AhgfQffsd!21 quick type suggest me AhgfQffsd, that word don't make any sense, and i think that could be filtered.
