[RESOLVED] Javascript regex to validate users profile name

How can I validate a name in Javascript using Regex? I tried with /^([a-zA-Z.]){3,50}$/ validation expression but it does not completely satisfy my needs.

Valid Names can be (Total Name Length between 3 and 50)

• John
• Antony Simon
• Kevin M D
• James.K
• James KJ
• James K.J

Invalid names can be

• 121212
• aaa12212
• 3434fgfgf
• James..
• James .
• James ..dfgdf
• ........................
• ...   .....
•          

Please help.

Hi,

Please consider below regex.

^[a-z][\w]{3,20}([\.\s][\w]{1,30})?

^[a-z]: begin with a-z

[\w]{3,20} append with any word character including underscore, you could config this length, (in order to match Kevin M D James K.J, please consider[a-zA-Z0-9\s] instead of [\w]

([\.\s][\w]{1,30})? match the name contains " " or "."

This is just a suggestion for you, please modify this according with your requirement.

Best Regards,

Jambor
