Duplicate of 0003246 - the dwarf's actual first name is "Stinthäd", and it's glitching at the "ä" due to you using TrueType mode.

Inclined to agree with Quietust on this one. You should be able to confirm for yourself though.

Aklyon, if you feel Quietust's explanation at 0003776:0014413 doesn't cover your situation, please reopen this report and post further information.
