Default Autocorrect with wildcards

I work in a company in the UK which works with Norwegian clients a lot, often people with å in their name. I want to set up people's computers so when the type aaa in a word, it comes out with å. Eg. if they type 'Paaal' they get the name 'Pål'.

When I program autocorrect to change aaa to å it only does it when aaa is typed as a word, not within a word.

Is there a character I can use as a wildcard, or some other way to get autocorrect to do this?
