Reminder for anyone handling names in a form, database, or whatever: both given names and surnames can have spaces in them. "Mary Ann" is a valid name, and "St. Clair" is a real family name. Allow your users to put in their names properly, and *never* call them "invalid".
(What's actually invalid if you do that is *your name validation logic*.)
