Use This Name Parser API When...

Splitting names by space doesn’t work

Extract first/last names correctly across initials, middle names, and compound surnames.

Name fields contain everything but names

Detect non-person input (companies, emails, URLs, placeholders) in name fields.

Legacy data is already broken

Normalize legacy data inherited from years of manual entry, old CRMs, and inconsistent rules.

Regex doesn't work for multiple people in one field

Handle compound surnames, shared surnames, and multiple people in one string.

Imports, migrations, and data from unknown sources

Standardize names from imports, migrations, and third-party data sources.

Gender isn’t available, but still needed

Infer gender from names and titles as part of name normalization workflows.

Parsing gives results without context

Always know what happened to your input: what was corrected, cleaned, or detected.

Names follow different patterns

Parse and clean personal names across US, UK, EU, and cyrillic-based names.

FAQ

This name parsing API is built for business applications where name data is messy and inconsistent. It’s often used as part of CRM, marketing, and data processing workflows to clean, split, and normalize names before they reach downstream systems.

Yes. Intsurfing API includes a free tier with 5,000 requests every month. This is not a limited-time trial. You can test the API in real scenarios and only start paying if your usage goes above the free limit.

You only start paying after you exceed 5,000 requests in a month. Usage above the free tier is billed progressively, with different rates for each request block. Your monthly name parser API cost is the sum of all tiers you used.

Name parsing is harder than it looks. Real input is messy, inconsistent, and often ambiguous. This API works best with names from the US, UK, EU, and Cyrillic-based languages. It handles common formats, noise, and edge cases you actually see in production.

Put the name parsing API between your data source and the CRM. Send the raw “Full name” to the API, then write the cleaned fields back to the CRM (first name, last name, title, suffix, gender if needed). Use the returned flags to skip, review, or route edge cases.

If a name can’t be parsed reliably, the API returns operation results that indicate what was detected during processing, such as invalid input, multiple people, or non-name data. This lets you decide whether to review, drop, or handle the input differently.

Yes. The API can flag when a name field contains a company name, email address, URL, placeholder text, or other non-person input. This is useful for cleaning form submissions and imported datasets where name fields often contain unexpected or invalid values.

Full documentation is available online and includes API endpoints, input parameters, output formats, and examples. It explains how parsing works, how to use optional parameters, and how to interpret operation results. You can access the documentation without contacting sales or creating an account.
