Adrian Crum commented on SANDBOX-487:
-------------------------------------
Keep in mind different cultures construct names in different ways. Terms like
"first name" and "last name" are relative - they depend on the culture. Plus,
there may be multiple "middle" names - paternal and maternal middle names for
example.
Also, it would be nice if such a tool worked both ways: given name fragments it
outputs a "normalized" full name.
