Even if you don't know what event, contact, and location suggestions are, you've probably seen at least one of them floating around on your Mac.
Simply put, when things are suggested to you, it's your Mac's way of saying "you have a text from a stranger, they said in the text their name is Tanya, so therefore we're going to suggest that the contact is named Tanya".
While some people absolutely love this feature and find it helpful with not only their contacts, but locations and events, others might be somewhat annoyed with the constant bombardment of incorrect/wonky/not-as-right/annoying suggestions.
