    How do you want the username to appear?

    Here's what I do:

    (defun name ( / namlist)
    (setq namlist '(("ALLEN" "ASJ")
    ("ANJIE" "AJB")
    ("AUDRA" "AMD")
    ("BRENT" "BAP")
    ("BRUCE" "CBN")
    ("CELESTE" "CKS")
    ("DESIREE" "DEM")
    ("ERIC" "ECW")
    ("JON" "JDL")
    ("KEN" "KRV")
    ("LUC" "JDL")
    ("MARKH" "MJH")
    ("MARKM" "MAM")
    ("RON" "RLB")
    )
    nam (strcase (getvar "loginname"))
    )

    (if (assoc nam namlist)
    (cadr (assoc nam namlist))
    (substr nam 1 3)
    )

    )

    Then set a USER variable to the intials:

    (setvar "USERS1" (name))
