Logging in Audit logs shows the full name instead of username.
Some organizations use username rather than full name across their systems.
We should either update the field logged to be username or make it configurable.
Current Functionality Example
Here we have the full names of "admin full name" and "Cole Aronson" being logged with a username change. We can only see the username of the user being changed in the details:
Logs confirm the username for the admin is never logged:
