No username on registration = duplicate username?

I've tried to search for an answer on this, since I'm sure it has been discussed before, but I haven't been able to find it.

With CB I set the username to not show on registration, nor on profile or anywhere. Users login using their e-mail adress instead. So far so good.

However when I look at the user management it shows the first + last name as username. The problem here is that when a user with the exact same name as someone who is already a member tries to register it says 'username already exists'.

During registration I only want to look for duplicate e-mail adresses not usernames, is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks in advance.

Is there anyone who can send me in the right direction on this one?
