"normalizeSpace" should by called "collapse" or alike. "Normalizing" usually is only the task where the string is getting trimmed, and where each whitespace and control character is getting replaced by a space. Normalizing plus the replacement of subsequent whitespaces by a single space is called "collapsing". See javax.xml.bind.annotation.adapters.CollapsedStringAdapter and NormalizedStringAdapter. Referring to StringUtils. I don't know about the 'usually', but I do like the name collapse.
