Hi, First, if you are interesting in this discussion, I would like you read this [1] before going further.
As one of the original author of the party module, I want to say that this background was known when we wrote the party module and the fact there is only one single name field was on purpose. So for me, the addition of the lastname field in health module is not correct because it is too locale specific. I tried to find where this distinction was needed in the health modules but I did not. So for me, there are two options to make GNU Health works better all around the world: - Remove lastname field because we don't need it. - Change lastname field for a (or many) field(s) for which the usage will be clearly defined like: "called name" for sending mail.
