Extract First Names from Email Addresses List

B2B lead generation prompt tailored for fast contact enrichment. This prompt parses a column of email addresses and extracts the most likely first name for each entry, returning a clean, capitalized first name or the label Error when a human name cannot be reliably identified. It is designed for sales and marketing teams that need accurate first-name personalization at scale for cold emails, CRM updates, and outbound sequences.Use it to transform raw email lists into enriched contact data before outreach, boosting personalization, reply rates, and deliverability. The workflow accepts a column input, analyzes local-part patterns, handles separators and common naming structures, and filters out business or brand terms. It then standardizes output for CSV or spreadsheet workflows, making it easy to feed into CRMs, sequencing tools, or data pipelines.Ideal for outbound prospecting, it helps SDRs and growth teams quickly prepare personalized subject lines and greetings without manual research. It also supports data hygiene by flagging non-personal addresses and shared inboxes as Error, reducing mis-personalization risks. This is a practical AI sales research workflow for teams that need repeatable, high-quality enrichment from email-only datasets, especially when LinkedIn or firmographic data is limited.If the original input is provided in another language, note that the final description is in English and the prompt still processes the email column as specified.
