Word replacement huge problem

I am writing text in Finnish. A very often used word is ”ja”, meaning ”and”. Since iOS 11.0.1, iOS started to replace ”ja” with ”J.A” which are initials of my name, everywhere like Mail, Notes,.... The keyboard settings does not include a shortcut to replace ja with J.A. So obviously I cannot turn this off. Nowhere there is a place to disable this, so this must be a new inbuild feature in iOS to replace this word with the user’s initials from the Address book where I have specified my contact to be ”me”. Also, writing ”aj” gets replaced with J.A, again giving evidence this is related to my name.

Obviously since the word ”ja” is used very often, this is a huge problem with me. Imaging every time you write and, you would have to touch the screen to keep ”and” instead of being replaced with A.N.D....

If I switch text input to English, this does not happen at all. Kind of strange. Happens both with the on screen software keyboard and physical bluetooth keyboard. Does not happen in my iPhone 6S though. At least yet.

Tried to contact Apple with this problem but got lost in support selection **** and not willing to pay 29€ for a single shot support ticket. How to let them know this update ***** so they can fix this with another update?

OK I tried to add a shortcut to keyboard settings which replaces ”ja” with ”ja”. Didn’t help. ”ja” is still replaced with ”J.A”. Maybe I need to change my name then.
