format_username($account)
Format a username.
By default, the passed in object's 'name' property is used if it exists, or else, the site-defined value for the 'anonymous' variable. However, a module may override this by implementing hook_username_alter(&$name, $account).

Parameters
$account The account object for the user whose name is to be formatted.
Return value
