You can try

[RegularExpression("^([A-Za-z ]+$)",
ErrorMessage = "Please Enter Correct Name")]

Description

^ - Beginning of string

[ ] - Brackets specifies set of characters

A-za-z - All capital/small letters

- Consider a space

+ - one or more letters

$ - Indicates end of string

Answer 2

You can use [A-Za-z\s]+ it will matches alphabet characters and spaces

[RegularExpression("[A-Za-z\s]+", ErrorMessage = "Please Enter Correct Name")]

\s matches any whitespace character
