Splitting name into first, middle and surname

For most transcriptions of censuses, the name field contains first, middle and surname all added together. This project aims to split these into 3 seperate fields. When the names are in seperate fields, the search improves significantly. First name can either be omitted or you can use wildcard characters. The split will give the opportunity to view lists of all surnames for a specific parish. This makes finding people where the exact name is unknow easy. This project requires a high level of knowledge of danish names.
