Handling Quotation when Inserting Table to SQL Database

I have a table that looks like this:
id = [1 2]';
name = {'abc', 'a''bc'}';
data = table(id,name);
disp(data)
Now when I tried to insert this table to a MS SQL database, I got this error:
hdr = {'id','name'};
insert(conn, 'userName.dbName.tableName', hdr, data)
Apparently it's because of the single quotation mark in the second row of the table, as I can see the first row got inserted successfully.
Thoughts?

I cannot reproduce this issue in MATLAB R2018a with SQL Server 2016. Which MATLAB and SQL Server versions are you using?
Matlab 2013b and SQL Server 2008 R2. Anyway I figured out where the issue lies. Please see my own comment.

The issue appears to be that when Matlab sends data to SQL, it is already an "interpreted" version. So it was a single quotation that SQL receives, not a double one which I passed as an input to "data".
This runs successfully:
id = [1 2]';
name = {'abc', 'a''''bc'}';
data = table(id,name);
insert(conn, 'userName.dbName.tableName', hdr, data)
