Default Find second to last value in cell

Unless most "right" or "left" functions in which one is looking to select the
"LAST" or the "FIRST" value within a string of characters within a call, I
wish to select the "SECOND TO LAST" value within a string of characters
within a call. IN other words, assume the string of characters of a cell
ends with "Fname Lname". I wish to select "Fname" from the character string
and place it in another column. Any ideas? Much appreciated.
