Hint text is required to make the purpose of this field clear, such as "Examples: Betsy, Bob, Liz". [Usage] 
Required text field. Allows applications to provide "friendlier" welcome messages, and to identify people with the names by which they are known in an organization. People often prefer other names to their first names. Users from locales such as China that have a different name sequence often specify a preferred name that can be displayed before the family name in English language applications.
