Yeah, I was going to ask about that. My github username is vortechs2000,
but my name is clearly set in the profile.  Seems a bit daft to require
new github accounts (since there's no way to change a username after the
account has been created) and lose history, not to mention the issues of
name collision if we're required to use our names as the usernames...
