Answer 2

Use this:
Note: name variable is your name. Initials will be logged in the console. You can change the code, of course

var name = 'Foo Bar 1Name too Long';
var initials = name.match(/\b\w/g) || [];
initials = ((initials.shift() || '') + (initials.pop() || '')).toUpperCase();
console.log(initials);
