Following Mike Pratt’s suggestion I’ve added custom profile fields for separate first name and last name and made them required.

They now show up on the registration form, but there’s already the required field “Name” there.

Is there a way to autogenerate “Name” from “first name” and “last name”?

Aren’t separate first name and last name already a default part of the system somewhere? I noticed user management in wp-admin has separate first and last name fields. Where are they stored? Can’t I use that for the registration form as well?

Very confused…
