Can someone tell me how to get an avatars first and last names, separately. I can see how to get the full name, but not first and last separate.

Thanks

Try this:
string s = "Full Name";
string FirstName = llGetSubString( s, 0, llSubStringIndex( s, " ";)-1);
string LastName = llGetSubString( s, llSubStringIndex( s, " ";)+1, -1);

Alternatively:

string s = "John Doe";
list name = llParseString2List(s, [" "], []);
string firstName = llList2String(name, 0);
string lastName = llList2String(name, 1);

Previously, this was faster than using the string functions but I do not know if that has changed since the Mono rollout.
