FYI -- normalize company name enrichment will remove "com" from any name, even if it's part of the name
The normalize company name function is designed to remove common suffixes like "Inc," "LLC," and other corporate designators from company names. It focuses on cleaning up legal suffixes and unnecessary prefixes to make company names more uniform.For example, it will transform "Panamax Inc." to "Panamax" and "Cora, a company of blank" to "Cora". However, the documentation doesn't specifically mention how it handles ".com" when it's part of the actual company name. If you're experiencing issues with this specific case, you may want to review the results and adjust your normalization settings as needed.

No this is a bug
No, this is not a bug. Our normalize company names function is specifically designed to remove common suffixes and unnecessary terms from company names to make them more uniform and cleaner. The function removes legal suffixes like "Inc." and "LLC," as well as other unnecessary prefixes and suffixes to streamline company names.For example, "Panamax Inc." would become "Panamax," and "Cora, a company of blank" would become "Cora." This standardization helps maintain consistency in your data and makes it more suitable for use in email copy and other communications.
