thank @awesomerobot

i went and checked a couple of things, have not gotten to the specific discord element you mention (removed: brainfart)

checked exactly which attribute “James Mitchell” is contained in under Orzo’s discourse profile I have found that the name doesn’t actually appear anywhere in the user’s account.

I checked a few other posts into discord from discourse with similar **string @profile** and found the same thing.

that setting prioritize username in ux is enabled.

toggled the setting - did not alter behaviour

installed data browser and confirmed that users.name is what is finding its way to discord

interestingly users.name doesn’t appear editable through the discourse UI - am i having a muppet moment here?
