To determine initials for an avatar, the code initially tries to extract two-letter initials from `contactName`. If that isn't successful, it falls back to trying the first initial of the `contactEmail`. If the algorithm fails to extract a character from the `contactEmail`, it falls back to the `#` character to represent the generic user. ### Initials ```Swift // Without an image AvatarView(avatarSize: size, contactName: "Amanda Brady", contactEmail: "Amanda.Brady@example.com", contactImage: nil) ```

### Profile ```Swift // With an image AvatarView(avatarSize: size, contactName: "Amanda Brady", contactEmail: "Amanda.Brady@example.com", contactImage: NSImage(named: "Amanda")) ```
