Research direction

Trace the sign-up Name field through the control plane and web UI, then find the account model and the Profile → Account, sidebar, members table, and audit log entry points. Start by locating where account data is created and how those views currently derive the email local part. Done when the optional name is stored and editable, appears in the sidebar and members table, and is never used for authentication.
