You probably want something like the following:

     [error name=fname std_label="Name" required=1]
     <input tag for the fname form field>
     <input tag for the lname form field>

And then the following in your profile:

    &and fname=required, lname=required Anonymity is overrated

Remember to restart/reconfig after changing the profiles.order file.
