Hi everyone,
We are very happy to let you all know that the ability to remove the Dropbox username from a file name when submitting a File Request is now available.
When creating the File Request, simply click on the trashcan icon next to the "Sender's name" field to remove this from the incoming files.
We know that a lot of you have been very keen to see this feature added and we hope it now makes using File Requests a little bit easier for you all.
Thank you for you patience getting to here and for choosing Dropbox!
Have a great day!

Dropbox StaffHi there corysed, thanks for reaching out to us about file request submissions.
Currently, users uploading via a file request require to atleast enter the First name box and a valid email address.
However, you can have a look at this thread where other users have also shown their interest in such a feature.
Hope this helps to some extent!
Can't say that it helps, but I'll voice my desire to have this feature made optional in the thread you linked to.
