Tagging people with spaces in their username doesn't seem to work. I tried to tag "James Bond" (with the @ symbol in front) but it didn't seem to work. Is there a trick to it?

People with privacy set can't be tagged. People with spaces in name can't be tagged either.

People could have special characters in their usernames but I removed that many years ago by preventing creating those usernames. We have very few long time users with these.
