   Please help a newbie out.

   I want to change the Display Name from the Username to the First Name. I realise you can change this in the per-user settings, but I'm going to have to do it for 50 users (or so) who will be participating in a community blog.

   Two options I had considered:

   1. Changing the default behaviour when a new user is created.
      This would be the preferred behaviour.
   2. If that's not possible, perhaps I could run a script of sorts to change the author name to the First Name for a batch of users, or even for all blog users.

   I've found a few relevant forums posts, but they're either don't seem to correspond to WordPress 2.6 or just don't seem to have been answered.

   Any advice would be much appreciated. Many thanks!
