php-fakerHow do I generate a middle name using Laravel Faker?

Generating a middle name using Laravel Faker is fairly straightforward.

First, you'll need to install the Faker package. This can be done with the following command:

composer require fzaninotto/faker

Once that's done, you can use the following example code to generate a middle name:

use Faker\Generator as Faker;

$faker = Faker::create();

echo $faker->name('middleName');

This will output a randomly generated middle name, for example:

Jacob

Code explanation

• use Faker\Generator as Faker;: This imports the Faker class.
• $faker = Faker::create();: This creates an instance of the Faker class.
• echo $faker->name('middleName');: This generates a random middle name.
