Description
A Parser for Human Names.
Description
Human names are complicated and nonstandard things. Humaniformat, which is based on Anthony Ettinger's 'humanparser' project (https://github.com/ chovy/humanparser) provides functions for parsing human names, making a best- guess attempt to distinguish sub-components such as prefixes, suffixes, middle names and salutations.

Description
humaniformat (humaniform + format) is a human names parser for R. With it, you can parse names, distinguishing salutations, suffixes, and first, middle and last names. humaniformat recognises compound last names (and preserves them) from a wide range of cultures, although the name format itself is somewhat Western-centric (it assumes, for example, that first name comes before last name, which is not always the standard).
