Who knows.
but it happens with any set of words containing bay - "Mike
Bay" is a title now. I can make it a suffix by enclosing it in quotes....
which means one method of forcing words together doesn't work. Neither
does a period following it.
They programmed it to recognize words common to titles and they
automatically populate that field when entered - no idea why Bay would be
a title though... there are others that do this (many more than are on the
short predefined list), but the ones I knew about were obviously titles.

when I create a contact and enter the name (or letters) "bay" outlook
automatically populates the "title" field and not the "first name" or
"last
name" field as with evrey other letter combination i have ever used or
tried.
Does anybody know why? does anybody know if there is a fix other then
populating the "first name" or "last name" fields manually?
