    Ah, but you see, "John" and "Doe" are two names - first and last - and when you say "My name is", you're really listing out your names, with spaces inbetween!

    But then there's hyphenated names, and I have no idea how those are treated.

    The Romans also had spaces in between words

    I was under the impression that that was actually a medieval invention
