Split Every Line In Txt Into Separate Txt File, Named Same As The Line

Hi All

Is there a way to export every line into new txt file where by the title of each txt output are same as the line [or its content]?

I have this txt files containing names:

Code:
Kandra Vanhooser
Rhona Menefee
Reynaldo Hutt
Houston Rafferty
Charmaine Lord
Albertine Poucher
Juana Maes
Mitch Lobel
Janette Funderburke
Magdalen Null

The last names are included so it's most likely has no duplicate lines.

I would like to just print or split them into separate txt files. Something like this:

Kandra Vanhooser.txt
Rhona Menefee.txt
Reynaldo Hutt.txt
Houston Rafferty.txt
Charmaine Lord.txt
Albertine Poucher.txt
Juana Maes.txt
Mitch Lobel.txt
Janette Funderburke.txt
Magdalen Null.txt


And each of the txt file has each name in it.

However I only know this command. And it's not even close to it

split -l 1 file.txt output

It doesn't do what I want Smilie

Thanks in advance.

Regards

gensprep(8)							 ICU 50.1.2 Manual						       gensprep(8)

NAME
gensprep - compile StringPrep data from files filtered by filterRFC3454.pl SYNOPSIS
gensprep [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -s, --sourcedir source ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] DESCRIPTION
gensprep reads filtered RFC 3454 files and compiles their information into a binary form. The resulting file, <name>.icu, can then be read directly by ICU, or used by pkgdata(8) for incorporation into a larger archive or library. The files read by gensprep are described in the FILES section. OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help Print help about usage and exit. -v, --verbose Display extra informative messages during execution. -c, --copyright Include a copyright notice into the binary data. -s, --sourcedir source Set the source directory to source. The default source directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. -d, --destdir destination Set the destination directory to destination. The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. ENVIRONMENT
ICU_DATA Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to /usr/share/icu/50.1.2/. Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure that it is present if ICU_DATA is set. FILES
The following files are read by gensprep and are looked for in the source /misc for rfc3454_*.txt files and in source /unidata for Normal- izationCorrections.txt. rfc3453_A_1.txt Contains the list of unassigned codepoints in Unicode version 3.2.0.... rfc3454_B_1.txt Contains the list of code points that are commonly mapped to nothing.... rfc3454_B_2.txt Contains the list of mappings for casefolding of code points when Normalization form NFKC is specified.... rfc3454_C_X.txt Contains the list of code points that are prohibited for IDNA. NormalizationCorrections.txt Contains the list of code points whose normalization has changed since Unicode Version 3.2.0. VERSION
