Substitute with "-" or "xyz" if forced. They should know you don't want to provide that data.

My company blames me when people fill out forms with junk data just to get to what was already a public link, then I have to go in the CRM every morning and delete a dozen "your moms" and "nunyas".

I filled the form Reddit sent me for their IPO with junk data. I hope many other people will do the same.
