[quoted lines by Lee Maschmeyer on 2014/11/09 at 11:54 -0500]

>Usually the letters peri that begin a word are a prefix, such as in
>perinatal. However, there is a surname Perin. In order to avoid
>breaking perinatal, which I avoided only by the skin of my brushed
>teeth, I had to insert three new lines in the contraction table, as
>attached.

Before considering this to be the final approach, please add into the mix the 
following three words: perineum, perinea, perineal.

It may also be worth considering that it's valid English to use a name as a 
verb, as in "he's been Perined".
