How does Soocial deal with Gmail's name field?
It seems like that when I sync my contacts with Gmail the more complicate first and last names become messy. How come?

Inappropriate?Contacts in Gmail only have one name field. First, second, last and additional names are all put in the same field.:

When Soocial imports this contact,the "First name" will be the first name: John
The "Last name" will be the last name. As in this case: Sr.
The rest will be "Middle name": Peter McSoocial
Another example: Paul & Anna Williams
First: Paul
Middle: & Anna
Last: Williams
A workaround would be to remove spaces or add hyphens:
John Peter McSoocial-Sr.
Paul&Anna Williams
This behavior is for the new Gmail sync. If you see other behavior please check if you can upgrade your Gmail connection on the www.soocial.com/connections page.
