I've submitted a patch (http://trac.roundcube.net/ticket/1485212) that gives RoundCube the ability to dynamically generate a contact's display name by concatenating the first and last name fields and it also eliminates the separate display name field.

A lot of people actually prefer reading a name (and being called so) "last name first name" 1.

It may also happen that an address book contains both entries of people who prefer to be called "first name last name" *and* people who are used to being called "last name first name" - so there is a reason for having a display name field.

Cheers, Patrick.
