Your sample names are all on a single line. If that's what you have right now, all you need is to find everything that's on a single line …

If not, there are a couple of other avenues you might proceed into (or something — I'm mixing metaphors I think).

Your own suggestion is a valiant try but will also match any two words, even starting with a lowercase! That's because of the use of the * operator – zero or more. You are also limiting yourself to accentless names … which might be okay if they are all American :) but hey, let's go nuts.

Try this one:

ul+( l+)*( ul+)+
