Grammar I

Genitive Rule: When using the Genitive case (Genitive is the possessive), it is normally proper to add an 's after the noun that it is possessing. Examples:

Shirley's notebooks are so cute!
Look at Aki's beautiful coat!
The ladies' restroom is over here.

In the instance of names that end with "s," having an apostrophe right after the "s" is correct but you can also add 's. Examples:

Iris' // Iris's
Jesus's // Jesus'

Important note:
The word "it" inherently indicates possession, so there is no need to use an apostraphe s, unless it's the shorthand for "it is." A related website: http://www.its-not-its.info/
