Hello,
On Topic pages the full name prioritize if same as username.
However on other page like on users page or groups the username shown if same as full name.
Thanks ![]()
The issue is that the user directory on Discourse does not prioritize the full name when it is the same as the username, unlike on topic pages. Don points out the inconsistency and provides screenshots for illustration. @nbianca explains that the behavior was originally implemented to display only the username when it is very similar to the full name, but this logic was not applied consistently across all areas. She has since removed the extra logic in PR #16686.

@nbianca can you add to your list to ensure we’re consistent when displaying the full name / username?
If the username is very similar to the name, then only the username was displayed. That was implemented on purpose, but did not follow all the other places where we show a username or name. I removed the extra logic in this PR:
