I would just avoid dealing with anyone stupid enough to put an apostrophe at the end of their name period.

That's not a dash. It's an apostrophe or in common parlance, a comma to da top.

You could say, "It be Lakeria's" and be done with it.

Not sure if you are aware or not, but most babies do not come out of the womb and choose their own name

you would choose not to do part of your job because one of the vendors hired a woman with an apostrophe at the end of her name in accounts receivable?

According to Oxford, in this situation, you would have a double comma to the top.
