Create user without setting first/last name

In the m2m API, POST /api/v1/user I've experienced that profile.given_name and profile.family_name are both required when creating a user.
For my use case, I want a B2B user to be able to invite a person to their account. I think that inviting that person without that person setting the first/last name of the user to be ideal.
It would be a lot better in my opinion if the user who was created would set this property on their first sign in into the app.

Great susgestion, we have just rolled out the ability to turn off collection first name and last name in the sign up form, so making the change to the public API is next.

To switch off the name requirement for sign up

Go to Settings > Applications > View details on your application.
Scroll to the Authentication experience section.
Switch off Ask for user first name and last name.
Select Save.
