title: Convert.ToString not handling null
body: <p>I've read that Convert.ToString should handle null, but it doesn't work when it's passed a null object in my code</p>
  
  <p>In this case the object "Name" is null.</p>
  
  <pre><code>var name = Convert.ToString(Name.LastName);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get Object reference not set to an instance of an object.</p>
