I kept your improvements to the date group; nothing wacky will get in and it addresses my tendency to sometimes type '2104'
.
checkdate() will kick out bogus dates.
I made what I think are some substantial improvements to the name and city groups. I also included a full description of what the regex is supposed to do (and not do) at the new link above.
Thanks so much for your help. This is the first time I've ever sat down and written a regex from scratch... and that website is the best one I have seen so far for testing.
