A single word name like "Daniel" is parsed as last name instead of first name.

Input : "Daniel"
Output : { first: "", middle: "", last: "Daniel" }

Expected : { first: "Daniel", middle: "", last: "" }

Screenshot attached.

Will the author be able to look into this issue or is there some other ways of handling it ?
This is my first time creating an issue on a open source npm package. Apologies, if I'm asking inappropriate question ! I'm not aware of the workflow.

We also encountered this issue, will there be a fix for this soon?

Same here. Seems like if anything it should use single name as the first name. Here's how I handled this:

const parsedName = parseFullName(name);
const firstName = !!parsedName.first ? parsedName.first : parsedName.last;

Notes:

• In my case, I was just trying to sort by first name so didn't have to worry about the fact that this would return the same thing for both first and last name.
• There are probably cases where this will not work, but it seems to be ok as far as I've seen in practice.
