Comment:

 Thanks for the ticket Stuart

 Upon a bit of research this is actually expected behaviour, it was
 implemented in r20964.

 > ''"Do not clear the old values in "Display name publicly as" drop-down
 on the user profile screen, append new values there when the user changes
 any of the name fields"''

 For more context please see the extra discussion #20747
