  I started a new blog dedicated to blogging from my iPhone (rovingi.wordpress.com). Why is my real name showing as the author instead of my username? I checked the username FAQ and have my admin setting set to display my username, same as on my other blogs where my username (Penforhire) shows correctly.

  What am I doing wrong?

  Where are you seeing your name? I took a look at your blog and the username is displayed as the author of the posts.

  I am seeing the real name on http://rovingi.wordpress.com and the user name on the http://xkeresto.wordpress.com/ site

  Bazaar is correct. Take a look at http://www.rovingi.wordpress.com . Why is my real name showing up in that new blog?

  Are the blogs under different accounts, or under the same account?

  Same account. I have TWO prior blogs that display correctly — penforhire.wordpress.com and xkeresto.wordpress.com

  rovingi.wordpress.com is just a 3rd blog I recently started. No new account. The only difference I can tell for sure is the new iPhone WordPress app is used to post. My other two blogs are more sophisticated blogs I update only from desktop PC’s.

  Is this a bug in the iPhone WordPress app?

  Sorry for not looking at the correct blog. Always throws me off when the URL isn’t a link. :-)

  The Sapphire theme was displaying first name and last name instead of the the display name set in the profile. I updated the theme.
