# personalnames[https://github.com/digirati-co-uk/personalnames](https://github.com/digirati-co-uk/personalnames)Lightweight Python functions for generating different formats for personal namesFor example, when parsing text (from OCR or manual transcription) for named individuals, it can be useful to know all of the forms in which a name might appear."Dr Martin Luther King, Jr."for example, might appear as "Dr. M. L. King, Jr." or as "King, Dr. Martin L., Jr.".This code will generate name variants by parsing a name (as a string), identifying prexifes and suffixes, and returning possible variants.## RequirementsPython 3.xRequired python packages are listed in `requirements.txt`.## Installation`pip install personalnames`## Usage```pythonfrom personalnames import namesname = "Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr."formats = names.name_initials( name=name, name_formats=["firstnamelastname", "lastnamefirstname"])assert sorted(formats) == sorted( [ "King, Dr. M. L., Jr.", "Dr. Martin Luther King", "Dr. M. Luther King, Jr.", "King, M. L.", "King, M. L., Jr.", "Dr. Martin L. King", "Martin Luther King", "King, Dr. Martin L.", "M. Luther King, Jr.", "Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.", "King, Dr. Martin L., Jr.", "Dr. M. L. King, Jr.", "King, Martin Luther", "King, Dr. M. L.", "King, M. Luther, Jr.", "King, Martin Luther, Jr.", "Dr. M. Luther King", "Dr. M. L. King", "Martin Luther King, Jr.", "King, Dr. M. Luther", "Martin L. King, Jr.", "M.

Luther", "King, Dr. M. Luther, Jr.", "King, Martin L.", ])```There are two possible formats for name order: `firstnamelastname` and `lastnamefirstname`.Additional Options:`non_ws=True`will return the same list but with additional versions that have no whitespace.```pythonfrom personalnames import namesname = "Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr."formats = names.name_initials( name=name, name_formats=["firstnamelastname"], non_ws=True)assert sorted(formats) == sorted( [ "Dr. M.
