Replying again ...
Thanks for the review Jeff, I have replied below and will address
these comments in next iteration. I will wait for a day more to get
some more reviews and collectively make the change.

Ack, will fix this in the next iteration.

Ack, will remove the extra space.

Hmmm, I think it makes sense to log each failure to find as a debug
log and log as err only if nothing matches (when ENODATA is returned).

Thinking about it a bit more, it makes sense to log the original name
rather than last name.

As mentioned above, it makes sense to log as debug for each failure to
find and log as error if nothing matches, will make this change in the
next iteration.
