How do you choose a classification algorithm for a specific machine learning problem ?

First of all I am a newbie with machine learning just trying my hands here and there . I have a specific problem in hand i.e If I have contact access of one person A , I have to classify the relation of the contact to A . Suppose I have contact list like this

• Abhishek +91 898989XXXX
• Dad +91 898989XXXX
• Puja Aunty +91 898989XXXX
• Sid Bro +91 898989XXXX
• Mom +91 898989XXXX
• Jeet Ganguly Sir +91 898989XXXX

I want to predict the relation from contact name like

• Abhishek - Friend
• Dad - Parent
• Puja Aunty- Parent
• Sid Bro- Friend
• Mom -Parent
• Jeet Ganguly Sir - Teacher
• Abhishek's Dad - Parent

This problem is for a parent teacher student communication app . So how would you predict this ? I have previously solved poblems like

• twitter sentiment analysis using textblob
• gender classifier from height weight foot size using svm
• city name generator using LSTM

The problem in hand is which classification algorithim I should use for this text analysis prediction and how should one should choose the perfect algorithm .
