= SUMMARY =

In the Bob Address Book, the name of your Personal Address Book is derived by taking your preferred name and appending an ’s to the end. Therefore, if your name ends in an s, you will notice that the correct possessive form is not used.

= MORE INFORMATION =

For example, if your name is Douglas, your Address Book is Douglas’s Address Book instead of the proper possessive form which would be Douglas’ Address Book.
