Re: Regex for properly formed names

Pointing back to Karsen's comment, what IS the definition, and instead of
asking "what is the regex" bring the question to a higher level, such as
"How can I validate that an insert on a "name" field has all the words
capitalized (but just the first word). From a formal name perspective
however, a name doesn't have all words capitalized, like "of" and "and"
would be lower case. It may be easier to implement different logic than a
regex to do this.
