Grant Access Error

SQL Server returns an error when I try go grant privileges to a username
containing '.' (dot). The statement goes like this:
GRANT <privileges> on <table_name> TO gh.om
The error message point to the '.' Is there a workaround?
We use the format "sitename"."username" on quite a lot of
serverconfigurations in our company and it will be quite a job to change al
l
the logon ids.
Thanks for any assistance
