Ok, I eventually found a workaround.
The below code will update firstname and lastname fields in the BP member profile upon user registration :
add_action('user_register', 'my_user_register');
function my_user_register($user_id)
{
if ( function_exists( 'xprofile_set_field_data' ) ) {
$firstname = get_usermeta( $user_id, 'first_name' );
$lastname = get_usermeta( $user_id, 'last_name' );
xprofile_set_field_data( 'firstname', $user_id, $firstname );
xprofile_set_field_data( 'lastname', $user_id, $lastname );
}
}
