I am not sure to understand :

My firstname is "Guillaume". My last name is "du Manoir". There is no additional
name. So if SEPARATOR is a double space <SPACE><SPACE>, if I have  :
Guillaume<SPACE><SPACE>du<SPACE>Manoir

What would happen ? Would it see two our three parts ? I assume two ?

Thanks,

Guillaume
