So it looks like Points.com is looking for the first default configuration for proper registration but the First and Last Names will still be the same as a DM account.

Also, I'm not sure Points.com cares about exact matching as long as everything is registered in the same account. I recall getting credit for my PhoneHog account last year even though there's only a first name on the account.
Thanks - I ended up changing the first and last names on Asiamiles on Points.com once it had been added and the transfer went through fine and is already showing up as a hit! ^
