That's easy, just call it Jhon\nDoe

John\0Doe will fuck with all C (and C based derivatives) software that touches it.

Nah, it will end up simply as "John" in the database. You need "John%sDoe" to crash C software with unsafe printf() calls, and even then it's better to use several "%s"

C and C derivatives will be fine unless they're fucking up encoding.

Which rarely, if ever, happens. Especially with US software.
