Comment (by hnla):

 I checked again and it does, maybe I misunderstood and checked username
 originally.

 I've lost track of why we force the 'name' field as if empty we just
 display username, after all 'name' is the WP display name and not a
 required field really.

 We'll have to add a regex check that the input isn't simply white space
 but as one or more characters.
