In order to impliment related post of an author functionality on our wordpress website i find out this really nice function

the_author_posts_link()

though its doing pretty good work but still not what we want as we have multi author websitte and some one them only provide guest post which means they don't have any user profile.

this function only work with the login user or with such similar functionality as i am not sure much about it as we have post published with the name of admin so its showing the URL as

http://localhost/blog/wordpress/author/admin/

we can not force our authors to create a pofile and nor we want to do it so we are happy to accept guest post where all user provide following details whihc we store as custom fields of a post

  1. email
  2. first name
  3. last name

we want url to be like if a user name is Aum Kumar URl should be like

http://localhost/blog/wordpress/author/aum-kumar/

is it possible to achieve this using the above functionality or i have to settle down with the current functionality what wordpress providing.

thanks in advance

Update

i was reading about custom Taxonomy so wondering if its possible to achieve the above objective with there help?
