How about "separate"? ("split" or "splitBy" is better but it is used all over the place in many libs)
And for strings I definitely would use split :: [a] -> [a] -> [[a]] a lot, just like Python's split function. And "words" works great for breaking on multiple spaces, so I would avoid trying to fill that need...
FWIW my home-grown versions of these things are called fields and unfields.
