Can we concat two properties in data binding?

Question

Can we concat two properties together in binding expression? If possible without converter or without writing two textblocks and setting them individually?

Like alpha-mouse suggests MultiBinding won't work out of the box, but this guy has thrown something together that might help:

If that seems a bit rogue, then maybe try putting a combined value property on your object as a helper for the Binding mechanism, like:

public string FullName {
   get { return this.FirstName + " " + this.LastName; }
}
