    Removing "The" from dictionary terms

    When I press tab to auto-complete some terms don't appear in the list. Then I realize that is because those terms begin with the word "The." Which is somewhat of an inconvenience, since tab auto-complete doesn't narrow the search after a space is added after "The." I think it would be a bit more convenient, an also less annoying, if the word "The" was removed from these terms. Unless I am overlooking something, I doubt anyone would miss it (or even notice). Thank you for your time and consideration.

    It also seems somewhat arbitrary as to which names use "The" and which don't. This was a thing in FFXI too and you just had to kind of ... know ... which ones were which.

    Scrolling through all the options for "The" removes any convenience or utility afforded by the auto translator.
