Ok all, after doing a little further research, here's what I think I've figured out, and maybe one of you real voiceover pros can help us out, but maybe this isn't fixable either. So, here's the deal. I'll give you the good news first. On an iPhone, iPad etc, you can hit the @ sign and begin typing somebody's name, feel higher on the screen and you should see a list of people who's names begin with the letters of the name you're looking for. Select the person you're looking for and continue with your comment. Don't put a space between the @ and the beginning letters of the person's name. If you want the last name or middle name or both gone, then after you select the person from the list, hit the backspace once to get rid of the last name and twice if the person has a middle and last name that you wanna get rid of. Now, for the bad news. The process should be the same for the mac, hit the @ sign and then begin typing a name, and a drop down menu should appear and you should be able to select the person, hit backspace if you wanna get rid of the last name, etc. The part that we VO users can't get around is that once you start typing, no drop down menus seem to appear. I don't think Voiceover is recognizing the menu, assuming it's there. I'm not sure if it's fixable or not, but maybe somebody more knowledgable than I can take this info and do something with it.
