Command for SSH with @ in User Name

I am trying to log into a server using SSH through the command line. I understand that the format is sftp -oPort=22 Username@Hostname. My issue is that my user name also has an @ symbol in it. Can someone tell me how I can get the system to not think that the last half of the user name as part of the hostname.

For example, my username is user@name. My hostname is hostname. When putting in the command, I am using sftp -oPort=22 user@name@hostname. The results I am getting is a request for the password for name@hostname.

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.

SSH-ARGV0(1)                                                BSD General Commands Manual                                               SSH-ARGV0(1)

NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command] hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally. OPTIONS
