Answer 1

You could sort with a String#localeCompare's option.

ignorePunctuation

Whether punctuation should be ignored. Possible values are true and false; the default is false.

var array = ['hello', '"end" two', 'end one', 'yes', 'abc'];

array.sort(function (a, b) {
    return a.localeCompare(b, undefined, { ignorePunctuation: true });
});

console.log(array);
