back everywhere.

I don't know what you've got there.  Presumably, you are familiar with the 
way vim handles NUL
characters (they are stored in memory as newlines, 0x0a, and show as ^@).  

Have you tried chopping off the ends of the elements? Say,

:let my_list = ["alice", "bob", "carol"]
:call map(my_list, {k,v -> v[0:-2]})
:echo my_list
['alic', 'bo', 'caro']
