Hi, I am looking for 2 regex which describe:
1) a valid name of a street
2) a valid name of a city
Valid street names are:
Not valid street names are:
Valid cities are:
Not valid cities are:
The solutions that I have at the moment matches very close but not perfectly:
For city and street name:
^[^\W\d_]+(?:[-\s][^\W\d_]+)*[.]?$
Unfortunately no match for these examples (the rest works fine):
If you have more simple solutions, I am happy to learn sth. new! :-)
To make it match St. Alexander Street and St. Petersburg, you just need to add an optional dot after the letter matching patterns:
^[^\W\d_]+\.?(?:[-\s][^\W\d_]+\.?)*$
# ^^^ ^^^
See the regex demo.
Also, it might make sense to add a single apostrophe to the regex:
^[^\W\d_]+\.?(?:[-\s'’][^\W\d_]+\.?)*$
See the regex demo.
