Making an enum out of your own classes. Not sure if this is a great idea, but it works and is cool.

enumcrap.swift

class Name : StringLiteralConvertible, Equatable {
    var firstName: String
    var lastName: String
    
    required init(firstName: String, lastName: String) {
        self.firstName = firstName
        self.lastName = lastName
    }
    
    class func convertFromStringLiteral(value: StringLiteralType) -> Self {
        let names = value.componentsSeparatedByString(" ")
        var firstName = names[0]
        var lastName = names[1]
        return self(firstName: firstName, lastName: lastName)
    }
    
    class func convertFromExtendedGraphemeClusterLiteral(value: String) -> Self {
        let names = value.componentsSeparatedByString(" ")
        var firstName = names[0]
        var lastName = names[1]
        return self(firstName: firstName, lastName: lastName)
    }
}

func ==(lhs: Name, rhs: Name) -> Bool {
    return lhs.firstName == rhs.firstName && lhs.lastName == rhs.lastName
}

enum DefaultNames: Name {
    case Me = "Jason Larsen"
    case You = "John Smith"
}

DefaultNames.Me
DefaultNames.You.toRaw()

if let name1 = DefaultNames.fromRaw("Jason Larsen") {
    switch(name1) {
    case .Me:
        println("This is me")
    case .You:
        println("This is you")
    }
}
