Composer init not accepting my name (similar to issue #3948)

Attempting to run composer.phar init produces the following error:

The regexp is at https://github.com/composer/composer/blob/master/src/Composer/Command/InitCommand.php#L323 if you want an easy PR 😉

I am sorry, @curry684, I am new to gitHub. What do you mean by PR? 😕

Status: Running into a circular dependency issue.

• To run the unit tests, composer is required
• Must fix the bug in order to install composer into the repo
• Can't verify the bug is fixed without the unit tests

Also, while I can simply adjust the filter, I have not yet finished tracing the code in order to verify that the quote character won't cause additional issues down the line.
