Hey Wellington Alan are you using Rails 4.0? If so, try the following:

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_filter :configure_permitted_parameters, if: :devise_controller?

  protected

  def configure_permitted_parameters
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:user) << :first_name, :last_name, :profile_name
  end
end
