How do I prevent a name from being separated in a sentence? i.e. John at the
end of the first sentence and Smith at the beginning of the next sentence. I
want full name John Smith to appear in the first sentence.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Use a nonbreaking space: Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar.

Thank you for replying so quickly! Good work!!

I tried the Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar and it works. The only thing I noticed is
the full name goes onto the second sentence. Is there any way I could keep
it together on the first?

Even if there is, you wouldn't want to do it. Cramming too much text on a
line causes it to be both unsightly & difficult to read. Other options
include;

a) use a slightly smaller font size (try 11.5 instead of 12, for example)
or a narrower font,
b) adjust your margins a bit, or
c) re-word your text.

Either will give you a much more acceptable result.
