(first and last).

Ex: Please enter your first and last name:    John Doe

Then, output the string.

Next, prompt the user to input their nickname.

Ex: Enter your nickname:   Rowdy

Then modify the name string to consist of the person’s first name, nickname (in all caps, enclosed in double quotes) and last name.

Then output the modified string.

Ex: Do you wish to enter another name(y/n)?

nickname = input.nextLine();
nickname = nickname.toUpperCase();

first = name.split(" ")[0];
last = name.split(" ")[1];

name = first + " "" + nickname + "" " + last;
System.out.println("Modified name is : "+name);
