I am looking to extend the usage of the built in user in a few ways.  I want to create a HR app and I am thinking I can user the base built in to Quick Base and extend its data with addresses etc.  Is there a way to do that?  Or should I be creating a new Employees table?

In a seperate app, project manager, I have it set to use the user table for assigning certain values.  However, for example it displays names as last name, first name.  Is there a way to change that behavior so it reads name First Name Last Name?

The built in User table is only for controlling access Permissions so yes, you should create a new table for Employees. You may also want to have a separate app for the HR app.

For your other question, there is a field setting on that User type field to change the display to "Full Name". That means like John Smith. .
