Keep people's names as in the source segment

Question

Hi, 
 I'm translating from Spanish to English using my own TM and the Language Cloud. 
 When the segment is translated by the LC, people's names are translated (Mar&iacute;a becomes Mary, Juan becomes John, etc.). This happens most of the time but not always. 
 I have added the names to my TM but it still happens. 
 So, my question is: 
 Is there any way to force the LC to respect the original names and not translate them? 
 At the moment I just have to remember to do a search and replace at the end of the text but there must be a better way. 
 
 Thanks in advance.

 If you have the appropriate paid for account you can do this by using dictionaries managed in your Language Cloud account. These are not the same as your terminology dictionaries/glossaries so you do need the appropriate account to be able to do this. 
 Alternatively you can use the Trados Data Protection Suite which is an app allowing you to protect text by converting to a tag. If you load the list of names you could convert them all to tags and then they would not be changed by the MT.
