The code below details out several worksheet functions you can use to split full names into the first and last name components.
To return the last name of the full name in A2, use the following formula.
=LEFT(A2,IF(ISERROR(FIND(",",A2,1)),LEN(A2),FIND(",",A2,1)-1))
To return the first name of the full name in A2, use the following formula.
=TRIM(IF(ISERROR(FIND(",",A2,1)),A2,MID(A2,FIND(",",A2,1)+1,IF(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A2,FIND(",",A2,1)+2)),LEN(A2),FIND(" ",A2,FIND(",",A2,1)+2))-FIND(",",A2,1))))
To return the middle name of the full name in A2, use the following formula.
=TRIM(RIGHT(A2,LEN(A2)-IF(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A2,FIND(" ",A2,FIND(",",A2,1)+2))),LEN(A2),FIND(" ",A2,FIND(" ",A2,FIND(",",A2,1)+2))-1)))
