Recently I sent an email to a game's support channel and the first paragraph
of their reply email contains this sentence "XX GAME お客様サポート係 横井でございます".  
  
I tried Google translate "横井" but it only shows "Yokoi" (the Japanese
pronunciation).  
  
I also learnt about "でございます" is a polite form from this forum.  
  
May I know what is the meaning of "横井"? Does it refer to the name of support
personnel?  
And does "係" refer to "is" ?  
  
Thanks.
