Welcome to the Make community!

To do this, you can use these built-in functions:

- **[split](https://help.make.com/string-functions#xe5A8)**  
`split(text; separator)`

- **[last](https://help.make.com/array-functions#maUPO)**  
`last(array)`

These functions may have also been covered in the [Make Academy tutorials](https://academy.make.com) — refer to the [Make Academy Course Overview](https://community.make.com/t/make-academy-course-overview/29699) to learn more.

Here’s an example of how you can use these functions together:

> `{{ last(split("Your Name"; space)) }}`  
> ⚡ _ **Make Input Markup:** Copy-paste the above into the field, including start/end curly brackets for it to import as intended_ ⚠

P.S.: investing some effort into the tutorials in the [Make Academy](https://academy.make.com) will save you lots of time and frustration using Make!
