Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/issues/924

Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Not everyone needs the name property in the user table.

Describe the solution you'd like

Make this field at least optional.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Remove it entirely, allow the user to choose what form of username/displayName/name they want on their own by using corresponding plugins for it.

Additional context

I've seen other users on Discord express concern around this as well.

I think this is duplicate of https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/issues/424

And I think the image should also be optional or be removed.

Yeah, I've express agreement in that issue as well.
But that issue is closed, so I opened this as a new to bring the issue back to light.
