Steps to reproduce the issue

Agreement to the site's Privacy Policy is required.

On registration after you get redirected to to privacy agreement is there posiblity to not display or remove name field in options?

Registration Confusing

Why do we need on registration page to have these 2 fields?

Name

User name

Can we just have user name ?

Couse name is confusing to our users they don't know what name to use then they try login to our site

Expected result

See just Username

Actual result

See Name and Username

System information (as much as possible)

j3.9.8

Additional comments

Now its very confusing having Name and Username

name is their real legal name (obviously not unique)
username can be anything that they want (must be unique)

As this is an agreement it must include the real legal name

You could use a language string override to change the label Name to Real Name or what you like.
No guarantee though, the label Name might be used in another context.

This should be closed. The current string is the intended behaviour and if a site wants to change it then they can easily create an override
