> Assuming that you're going to require at least two names (no single-name names allowed), then a string for First Name and a string for Last Name should be sufficient. Not even close; you're already off the rails with assumptions that break for tons of names. There's an easy way to do names decently, ask the user for their full name all in one field, and ask them for a nickname for use with the app and email and such. If you try to break their name down into parts, you're doing it wrong; names are not normally structured data, they're just unstructured free text.
