    Sorry if this doesn't fit in here, I didn't find anything better.

    It's been bothering me a while that I got mails from Unity that addressed me using my last name, instead of my first name - now I finally took the time to find out why.

    The field, which is labelled "name" and in editing mode says "full name" is used to separate the names into first and last name, assuming that the first name is always first.
    Which, I guess, does make sense, but sometimes things aren't the way it would be sensible. I'm always using my last name first when writing, then the first name.
    I couldn't even tell you why.

    Long story short: please add the info "first name, then last name" or something to that entry field.
    I don't mind writing my name the other way around, but I do mind if I'm not told what the system expects and then have to "suffer" the consequences, trivial as they may be.
