 * hey team,
    Thank you so much for this amazing plugin! 😀
 * I have a question:
    When a new user registers in the website, it still shows 
   the username. The admin needs to go to **Settings > Force First and Lats > Update
   Existing Users** in order to force First + Last.
 * Is there an automatic way to update the user once he registers? Without the need
   to click in the button automatically?
 * The registration system I use is woocommerce.
 * Thank you again for your help!😁

 * In my test with WooCommerce just now, =the user created at checkout does indeed
   have a display name set to First Last. I tested both where the username is automatically
   generated by WC, as well as allowing the user to create their own username. In
   both cases, the “Display Name” for the user is the First Last name as set in 
   the “Billing Address” fields at checkout.
 * There is also a “nickname” in the WordPress user, which is set to the username
   generated by Woo or chosen by the user. This should not affect what is shown 
   as the user’s display name, though.
 * Can you tell me what your settings are under WooCommerce > Settings > Accounts&
   Privacy?
 * Can you tell me the exact setup/steps you are using to register through WooCommerce?
 * Thank you,
    Kim
