      Description

      Hello.

      My user does not need Last and First name for his work. So I created profile without those fields, just with email. When I save a contact edited with this profile (see http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,7415.0.html for details on profile), the traditional CiviCRM representation of the contact is changed.

      By traditional representation I mean the names in the 'Recently Viewed' bar on CiviCRM pages.

      Suppose user is
      John McClaw, john@mail.fm

      Then previously in 'Recently Viewed' he was shown as 'John McClaw', after profile edit his names will be replaced by his email, so he will be shown as 'john@mail.fm'. This also affects display in the general search results.

      Just adding Last, First and Middle names as 'view only' fields of profile solved this problem.
