Tried it myself, it simply returns cell A2 as is !!.....no change
If you type the name in yourself, the code works fine. The problem is the spaces in the OP's posted text are not regular spaces (ASCII 32), rather, they are non-breaking spaces (ASCII 160) which are usually acquired by copying from the web. If you change this line of code...

ray = VBA.Split(Name, " ")

to this...

ray = VBA.Split(Replace(Name, Chr(160), " "), " ")

then the code should work fine.
