Does Ronald Koeman do that or are there some names where the 'oe' is correct?I have an ö in my last name, and some people with similar last names change it for oe, it's so ugly.

"oe" is separate two letters and pronounced more like long "u", koen - kuun, jeroen... I am not a native Dutch speaker though, still learning. As far as I know there is no "ö" in Dutch so it is not related.Does Ronald Koeman do that or are there some names where the 'oe' is correct?

Yeah the Turkish alphabet is even worse!if I would write my work email here, 10 out of 8 can't write can't find my name. Turkish has ö ı ç ş ü ğ which all of them represented with weird chars like oe, I, ch, sh, ue etc.
You are lucky, thanks to Mesut Özil, people at least know how to pronounce that letter.
I am dutch, but my last name is German. It's a great cause for confusion when people try to call me out, for example in the waiting room of the dentist. :DOh. I thought @Elvaenor is Dutch. I guess he is German living there?
