Would be nice to have some way of choosing the way a client is addressed in the email or at least use the full name.

Resolved the issue by changing line 1006 in pdf_report.inc
Changed contact details to:
$contact['name'].' '.$contact['name2']

The other way is to fill the customer information with what you want to be displayed in the email.

We will wait until 2.4 with this change.

Whether first name, last name or both, as well as the names order strictly depends on local habits. IMHO the only sensible way to fix this problem in FA is providing mail templates in FA.

Joe, kindly change this in code to show it when $contact['name2'] is not empty. Possibly with a config variable if needed.
