Change the display order of names in List Views from 'Last Name, First Name'

Users can modify the order of the display name to "First Name, Last Name" format within Salesforce Classic using the steps below:

1. Access Users, Leads, Person Accounts, or User Fields and Relationships:

• Salesforce Classic - Click Setup | Customize | select Contacts, Leads, Personal Accounts, or Users | select Fields | Under "OBJECT NAME Custom Fields & Relationships," click New.
• Salesforce Lightning - Open Object Manager | Select Contacts, Leads, Personal Accounts, or Users | select Fields & Relationships | click New.

2. Select Formula, then click Next.
3. In the "Field Label" and "Field Name" fields, enter a name and a label for your new field.
4. Under "Formula Return Type," select Text, then click Next. 
5. In the "Simple Formula" field, enter one of these formulas:

• For Contacts, Leads, or Users, enter:  HYPERLINK("URL"& Id , FirstName & " " & LastName)
• For Person Accounts, enter:  HYPERLINK("URL"& Id , PersonContact.FirstName & " " & PersonContact.LastName)
• Example: If your Salesforce instance URL is "https://ap1.salesforce.com/" then your "Users" formula will be HYPERLINK("https://ap1.salesforce.com/"& Id , FirstName & " " & LastName)

After you're done creating your new Custom Field, you can also add it to a List View to change how names display there. For help, read our List View documentation.
