Comment (by tbecker):

 The thing I liked about my idea is that it would not require an API
 change.  You ask for the full_name, and it gives you a full_name that's
 generated based on your locale.  Might also add a function sort_name,
 which returns the "sorting order" name.  For instance, for a hypothetical
 John Doe,

 first_name: John
 last_name: Doe
 get_full_name: John Doe (computed based on en-US)
 get_sort_name: Doe John (computed based on en-US)

 whereas if someone's locale were different and used "eastern order" name
 sorting, it would be:

 get_full_name: Doe John (computed)
 get_sort_name: Doe John (I guess... right?)
