That’s not exactly true, and I didn’t think it had terribly much bearing to my point on account of we’re talking about pronouns, but I’ll amend the parent.
Indeed, and while we’re on the subject of idiolects: my preference is for the spelling to follow the pronunciation. Hence either “Charles’s tie” or “Charles’ tie” is correct, depending on how you want it to be pronounced (in this case I usually prefer the latter option, but the meter of the sentence may sometimes make the other a better choice).
