Default Pick first name of full name in word merge

I Have a data base in Excel with the first cell containing the full name of a
person.
I want to customized a word letter starting with "Dear Frank" by using mail
merge and by picking up only the given name (first name) of the full name in
the cell of the data base.
Is there a way to do that?
Thank you.
