Would be nice to capture FirstName and LastName in Customer entity. There are lots of uses for this. One is to welcome the user more personally at login
E.g.
Welcome Back Darren Pegram (not Darren Pegram? click here to logout)
FirstName and LastName as part of the Customer entity

Good point, so when you register as a new customer you are asked for your firstname & lastname.
Looking at the code, I can see its stored as a systemattribute. As a quick test I added this
to CommonController.HeaderLinks (just before the return PartialView(model);
This will display firstname and lastname

var firstName = customer.GetAttribute<string>( SystemCustomerAttributeNames.FirstName );
var lastName = customer.GetAttribute<string>( SystemCustomerAttributeNames.LastName );
model.CustomerEmailUsername = firstName + " " + lastName ;
This will display firstname and lastname

I tried this, but it still displayed the email and not first/last name. Is there anything else that I need to do?

UnreadPrivateMessages = unreadMessage,
AlertMessage = alertMessage,
};
var firstName = customer.GetAttribute<string>( SystemCustomerAttributeNames.FirstName );
var lastName = customer.GetAttribute<string>( SystemCustomerAttributeNames.LastName );
model.CustomerEmailUsername = firstName + " " + lastName ;
return PartialView(model);
Still does not show the First and Last name :(
