 Sounds great! :)

 Yes, the UI around the user name is not fully "internationalized".
 Generally WordPress asks the users to enter their name, and then has a
 setting of how it should display the name (used on the front-end for
 things like post-author and archives). There is a bit of JS there to offer
 combinations of what the user has entered in the first-name and last-name
 form fields, but the users can type something else. This is somewhat
 limiting as pretty much everywhere a person has more than two names :)

 Thanks for that link to the [https://www.w3.org/International/questions
 /qa-personal-names w3.org article], really good read about names and (web)
 forms. Looking there, seems WP should have a single form field for a
 [https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-personal-names#singlefield
 user's name]:

  ask yourself whether you really need to have separate fields for given
 name and family name

 Lets continue the conversation on the new ticket you're opening :)
