I have a spreadsheet that includes a column consisting if people's
names. I want to split this into two columns. I want one column with
the given names and the other with their family names. This requires
taking the last word in the column and creating a new column with
this word. Is there a way to do this in Calc?

Note that the family name may not always be the last word. There are
various cultures where the family name comes at a different position in
the order, and even in English culture the family name may consist of
more than one word.

Thanks,

Paddy
