You can use the Levenshtein Distance to calculate the similarity of 2 words.
FuzzyWuzzy
is a good library that makes use of this algorithm.
Example:
from fuzzywuzzy import fuzz
from fuzzywuzzy import process
fuzz.ratio("Catherine M Gitau", "Catherine Gitau")
Result:
#91
So between those two strings there is a 91% similarity.
