    Extracting Middle Name/Initial when name fields look like First Mid Last

    I've uncovered excellent text conversion formulas to extract both the first name and last name from an 800+ column of names that look like:
    Davy J Jones
    Marcus Welby
    Anthony Lazy Denosso
    Janis Joplin
    Mark T Seager
    Mary Jean Post
    Some fields have middle names an/or initials, but not all. I cannot find a formula to extract the middle name and/or initial, that also will result in a blank field if there is no middle name/initial.

    See attached test file....

    Can anyone help?
