NameParserSharp

Based upon nameparser 1.1.3, NameParserSharp is a C# library that parses a human name into constituent fields Title, First, Middle, Last, Suffix, and Nickname from the HumanName class. For example:

var jfk = new HumanName("president john 'jack' f kennedy");

// person.Title == "president"
// person.First == "john"
// person.Middle == "f"
// person.Last == "kennedy"
// person.Nickname == "jack"

var jfk_alt = new HumanName("kennedy, president john (jack) f");

Assert.IsTrue(jfk == jfk_alt);

NameParserSharp implements the functionality of the Python project on which it is based in a C# idiomatic way.

The same extensive suite of tests as python-nameparser is used to confirm it meets the same specification.

Performance

There have been performance improvements to the library over the Python implementation to take advantage of some of the latest .NET features.
