I have a hyphenated last name that is three words with a space separating two of them, and as a result, Firefox leaves out 2/3 of my last name when autofilling forms. I would love for there to be two separate boxes for first and last names when entering a name and address into autofill settings so that this would not be an issue.

I agree. I have a name in three parts, and Firefox mistakenly thinks the second part is my middle name, so that I always have to correct the autofill.

We sent people to the moon with technology worse than we have in our pockets. This is such a basic and important thing. I can't believe it hasn't been implemented yet.

My last name has two word, Firefox just ignore the last. 😕 

Fixing this would be a great way to save time fixing forms.

Here to add support to this! I have two last names and Firefox thinks my first last name is my middle name, but I don't have a middle name! So it's a two-part operation to fix this: 1) empty the middle name field, and 2) add my first last name to the last name field.

It's not really a huge time burden, but it's irritating! Can Firefox please break up names into their components so autofill forms are filled out correctly according to each individual's name??
