Project summary
Create usernames based on a persons real name, and save those values as user fields.
Tommy Lee Jones → TLJones
The Realname registration module is a solution for forcing professional usernames that are based on a persons real name. The Username on the registration form is replaced with First name, Middle name (optional), and Last name fields created and provided by the site builder. The first name, middle name, and last name are preserved in the defined fields, where it is later tokenized for further use.
