The first name with the associated email identifies a person and allows to address the person in a friendly way. If you thought of cultures where you address people with the surname, still no point: then just make one field as well, call it \"Name\"). But I would certainly support one field, and called \"First Name\".\r\n\r\nThe Last Name exists to mirror the WordPress user account fields, and the Last Name field is optional so it can be left blank if desired:\r\n\r\n![2016-01-11_10-52-34](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/53005/12238358/9d03b676-b851-11e5-8663-7cc2426c3bb8.png)\r\n\r\nThat said, I agree it makes more sense to mirror the WordPress Comment Form fields (Name only, instead of First Name + Last Name).\r\n\r\n![2016-01-11_10-57-13](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/53005/12238455/1b141132-b852-11e5-83cf-af845d770c0f.png)\r\n\r\nSince Last Name is already optional, we should add an option that allows site owners to use a single \"Name\" field only, as opposed to showing both First and Last name fields.

If a Comment Mail Subscription belongs to a WordPress user, then we have access to that extra information via their account (e.g., a Last name, a preferred Display Name, etc.).\r\n\r\nIf the Subscription belongs to a non-User, then we should be collecting the same name information that WordPress collects when someone leaves a comment: A single \"Name\" field that allows the pseudo-anonymous  user to simply set the name they want to be associated with their Subscription. This falls in line with the information they're already expected to provide when leaving a WordPress comment (WordPress Comment = Name, Email, et. al.; Comment Mail Subscription = Name, Email, et. al.).\r\n\r\n@jaswsinc Is there any particular reason you chose to include a Last Name field in Comment Mail, perhaps something that I'm overlooking?"}}
