Pludi, I apologise. I must have read through that documentaion 3 times but seem to have been overwhelmed by the information and missed the paragraph that i needed... Thank you for your help

Bah, would you believe it the "option=s{'1,}" functionality is only available in 5.10 by the looks of it, all my systems are perl 5.8 or less .

I get this error when running the script on 5.8 or below

Code:
# ./name.pl  
Error in option spec: "surname=s{1,}"

Smilie oh well
