Is it possible using xslt?
It's certainly possible if you can specify precisely what the rules are: 
for example, what you want to happen to names like Herbert von Karajan 
or Ralph Vaughan Williams. If all your names are in the simplified 
American format of John X. Doe then it's fairly easy, but with real 
names occurring in the real world it's much harder (regardless of what 
programming language you choose).
