Module Description
The RealName module allows the administrator to choose fields from the user profile that will be used to add a "real name" element (method) to a user object. Hook_user is used to automatically add this to any user object that is loaded. It will also optionally set all nodes and comments to show this name.

The module underwent a major rewrite and simplification for Drupal 7 and later and now depends on the core token API and the Token module for its functionality. See https://drupal.org/node/1068734 for more information about the changes.


* Drupal 7 core provides a central function that should be used to output a user's display name format_username().
* Drupal 8 core provides getDisplayName() to output a user's display name.
