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.

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]
