Just the email and the address information will be left so that the user has less fields to fill. Now, if you just want to remove the name field, Joomla doesn't allow you to register a user without a name, so what you could do is use the username field value as the name. For that, change the view itself with the display->views menu. You can search for "login_register". In the view code, you could remove the label, change the field type to "hidden" and add the code Code: onchange="document.getElementById('register_name').value=this.value;" to the username field. That way the name of the joomla user will use the username field value. You could also use a concatenation of the other fields value but that requires a bit more javascript code. You don't need the joomla login module. The login area you see on the HikaShop checkout do not use it at all.

They are not related. They just use the same login procedures once the user enter his information but these procedures are not in the joomla login module, they are in the joomla library. So your customers will still be able to login at the beginning of the checkout. Also, you can still use the joomla login view even without the login module by creating a user login menu but that has nothing to do with HikaShop.

You apparently also deleted the username field. That field is necessary for joomla. If you want to use the email as username, you should change the option "registration" of the Checkout tab of the configuration to "simplified registration".
