// This is the header file for a name class that can store a name in
//  three parts and provide a string in any of four different formats
//  which can be used in any database requiring named of persons.
// It is not immediately obvious, but it can also be used to store
//  the name of a city, county, state combination also and provide a
//  string in the correct format to be used in a location program.
