How do you use apostrophes for possession in a name that ends with an s?
When a name ends with an s, you can use an apostrophe followed by an s ('s) to indicate possession. For example, "Charles's book" or "James's car." However, if the name is plural and already ends with an s, you can just use an apostrophe (') to show possession, like "the girls' toys" or "the Smiths' house."

Should a last name have an apostrophe for possessive?
Yes, a last name should have an apostrophe for possessive use. For example, if you want to indicate something belonging to someone with the last name Smith, you would write "Smith's."

If the last name is pluralized, such as "the Smiths," you would use an apostrophe after the "s" (e.g., "the Smiths' house").
