Field Name is the internal name of the field. It shows up on the guest list download.

Public Display Text is how you want it presented on the registration screen. HTML is allowed, e.g. to create links.

There are cases where you may want a custom field for internal use-only. E.g. table assignments. In these cases, do not select Visible to the public.
