Comment (by nickshor):

 I think BuddyPress profile fields related to NAME should eventually be
 mapped by default to WordPress profile fields to maintain consistency and
 give users privacy/identity control.
 1. Username (already exist)
 2. First Name (Default Visibility: My Friends, Let members change)
 3. Last Name (Default Visibility: My Friends, Let members change)
 4. Nickname (already exist? change it from Real Name? Default: display
 name as nickname)
 5. Display name publicly as...

 And related to groups invite and any other similar places, to avoid
 confusion we could use the unique field - the @username - placed in
 parentheses next to "Display Name"!

 PS: Guys, I'm new to BuddyPress, just tell me if I bother you, preferably
 before you ignore me :)
