Running some quick but really inaccurate calculations, I got the following information assuming that any combination of letters can be a name.
1. there are 27 combinations of first name/middle name/last name i.e 1st,2nd,3rd/1st,1st,1st/1st,1st,2nd, etc.
2. There are 26^number of letters, let's say max letters in a name is 10. 26^10=141167095653376 possible name combos per name of 10 or less letters.
3. multiply the number of possible combos of 1st,2nd,3rd names and the number of possible combinations of each name means there are 141167095653376 X 27 (3811511582641152) possible guesses for just names. Since we have 3 letters, there are 3811511582641152/3 (1,270,503,860,880,384) for possible guesses for sdw. That's 1 quadrillion, two hundred seventy trillion, five hundred and three billion, eight hundred sixty million, eight hundred eighty thousand, three hundred eighty-four, if anyone wondered.

As for the numbers, 195 is representative of some date, but I can't even begin to figure out the possibilities.

So with 1,270,503,860,880,384 name combos possible, let's start guessing.

The mystery of the numbers is solved 8-) : birthday; Jan 1995.

Since the numbers represent something personal, sdw is certain to be the initials or part-letters of a real name or a petname.

But the numbers could be 1/9/05, 1/95, or it could be a partial date, like 11/19/85, just take the last number in each part of the date. Therefore there isn't a way to find out the date except guessing.

Samantha Deborah Williams?
Quite unlikely, given the gender distribution of this forum, but still worth a try.
I'd wanted to say Samuel D. Walker first, but that might be even less likely.
And the number is clearly part of her/his address.

Seriously though, guessing the correct meaning is nigh impossible.
