Simple explanation: / */ is a regex that matches space zero or more times. Fred matches Fred, John John, etc pp use / +/ instead if you wish at least one space
^ matches the start and $ the end.
note: using /\s*/ fragments instead of / */ fragments matches all whitespace – including tabs, newlines, etc
