👤 Japanese Full Name Splitter

Paste one full name per line. The tool tries whitespace split, then a 200+ surname dictionary, then a 2-character fallback to extract family and given names with a confidence rating. Edit any wrong split inline and export as CSV / TSV.

❓ FAQ

How is confidence determined?
Whitespace-separated names get High. Matches against the 200+ surname dictionary get Medium. Everything else gets Low (2-character fallback).
Are compound surnames handled?
The 200+ dictionary includes major compound surnames (Sasaki, Hasegawa, Igarashi, etc.) and uses longest-match. Rare names may still be misclassified.
What about foreign or katakana-only names?
Not supported. Add a space manually or correct the result before export.
