We don't have a place to store a separate "Billing Name", and there's no way to add a profile to this form. We have a similar problem with some online contribution pages when the processor requires billing name - and we wind up overwriting the contact name if it's an existing contact and they have a different name on the credit card.

We're looking at adding a partial fix for this in 2.1 - where we don't overwrite the contact name with billing name unless the contact name is empty. This will prevent the overwriting problem. I'll update this thread with an issue link once it's entered.

We might eventually want to store billing names separately - but normally that's done in systems that also store / persist credit card info - which we probably won't ever do.

Great. Thanks!
