My NB site has a blog and I have had requests from folks who are posting to only default to using their first name - where is this setting managed?

While there is no "setting" — per se — that controls whether someone's first name or full name is displayed when the author a blog post, you can control this at the theme or page level by customizing your site (or page) theme.
Specifically, author names are typically outputted using the liquid variable pictured below ( "post.author.published_name_linked" ):
You can edit your theme and replace that Liquid tag with a different tag, such as the one pictured below ( "post.author.published_first_name_linked" ):
This would achieve your desired result: only the author's first name will be displayed.
