This module was written to extend the functionality of contacts to
support having separate last name and first name.

Configuration
=============
You can configure some common name patterns for the inverse function in
Settings > General settings:
- Lastname Firstname: For example 'Anderson Robert'
- Lastname, Firstname: For example 'Anderson, Robert'
- Firstname Lastname: For example 'Robert Anderson'
After applying the changes, you can recalculate all partners name
clicking "Recalculate names" button. Note: This process could take so
much time depending how many partners there are in database.
You can use *\_get_inverse_name* method to get lastname and firstname
from a simple string and also *\_get_computed_name* to get a name form
the lastname and firstname. These methods can be overridden to change
the format specified above.
Usage
=====
The field *name* becomes a stored function field concatenating the *last
name* and the *first name*. This avoids breaking compatibility with
other modules.
Users should fulfill manually the separate fields for *last name* and
*first name*, but in case you edit just the *name* field in some
unexpected module, there is an inverse function that tries to split that
automatically. It assumes that you write the *name* in format configured
(*"Lastname Firstname"*, by default), but it could lead to wrong
splitting (because it's just blindly trying to guess what you meant), so
you better specify it manually.
For the same reason, after installing, previous names for contacts will
stay in the *name* field, and the first time you edit any of them you
will be asked to supply the *last name* and *first name* (just once per
contact).
Known issues / Roadmap
======================
Patterns for the inverse function are configurable only at system level.
Maybe this configuration could depend on partner language, country or
company, as discussed at `this OCA
issue <https://github.com/OCA/partner-contact/issues/210>`__
