After playing with this for a few hours, I can see what a headache this is for you. : |

I did come up with a solution that isn't regex oriented, but I think it will work for all cases. It could probably be tightened a bit, although the regex way may be better in the end. 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

my $temp='';
my $flag=0;

print "Name\t\tPrependition\t\tWhatever\n";
while (<DATA>)
{
 chomp;
 my @line = split('\s+',$_);

 for my $i(0..$#line){
                 if ((length($line[$i])<4)&&
                    ($line[$i] =~ m/[A-Z][A-Z]+/o)){
                                                   $temp .= $line[$i];
                                                   $line[$i] = '*' if 
+$flag;
                                                   $line[$i] = '' if !
+$flag;
                                                   $flag = 1;
                                                   $temp .= ' ';
                                                   }
                 }
                 $flag = 0;
 for my $i(0..$#line){
                      print "$temp\t" if $line[$i] eq '';
                      print "$line[$i]\t" unless $line[$i] eq '*';;
                      }
 print "\n";
 $temp = '';
 }

Hope that helps!

Some people fall from grace. I prefer a running start...
