We have a contact form with an email address field.

Let's say user@yahoo.com will send an email using our contact form.

When it's submitted this is what the headers would look like:

From: "user@yahoo.com" <noreply@ourdomain.com>
Reply-To: user@yahoo.com


This seems to pass SPF, DKIM, DMARC, which is my goal.

My concern is, this somewhat spoofs the From Name and From Email. Is this an acceptable practice?

Yes, that's an acceptable practice. You could also append the users name and e-mail to the subject line or content if you want that information to be more visible to the recipient.
