First Name & Last Name

Hi,

I have a list of first names and last names. For some first names are extended to middle names in the same cell. Such middle names start with Capital Letter. And as an anomaly in data set a set of names like "Akhil esh" where the later half is actually the part of first half and not a separate middle name. How to identify such names and remove the space in between. Can any one help me on this.

Here is the data in quest.

First NameLast Name
Raghu NathKalya
Kal yanRam
Akhil eshYadav
Uma RamaLinga
Pras anthReddy

Here is the anticipated result:

Maybe like

LOAD

  if([First Name]=Capitalize([First Name]),Subfield([First Name],' ',1), replace([First Name],' ','')  ) as [First Name],

  if([First Name]=Capitalize([First Name]), Subfield([First Name],' ',2),'') as [Middle Name],

  [Last Name];

LOAD [First Name],

     [Last Name]

FROM
