Does any one know how to update the users first/last name in the Authentication > Users management. THey are created when my users are created, however the users names within my app are managed in a profiles table. I cant see how i can update the users that exist within "Authentication > Users management"

They come from the Oauth provider or the data object if you provide on signup. They are part of auth.users metadata and you normally would not change them directly.
There is no built in option to set them in the UI. The table you are referring to just extracts info from either raw_app_meta_data or raw_user_meta_data (not sure which) and formats the various OAuth naming schemes to displayname.
Did you pass in first name, last name when you signup users?
Are you using a trigger function to populate your profile table?
