Default sort names

Please help I have a very long list of names all typed in one cell ie:

Miss L Rayner
Mr J C F Clark
Mr P R Brown
Mr D L P Race
Ms Peal

I need to sort this list by the last name.

I can sort this via Data Text to columns, but this give the surname in
either column 3, 4 or 5... is there anyway to overcome this and sort all
those after the last space?
