What do you mean exactly?

Do you mean real name like John Smith?

You could add a required custom field for real name then alter the templates to display real name where username is displayed.

What Khurram means is, on an IPB board, when you sign up, you give a log in name and a display name. On one forum my login name is dudeness, but my display name is dudeness3. Khurram just wants to know if this is possible with MyBB.

Seems like a good addition, and something that would make your boards more professional looking.

Is there a way to do this currently without a plugin?
