<p>Making a SN site I've tried this module and found some mistakes (d 6.3)</p>
<p>1) include in realname_init() is never used because theme('username' is always goes to theme_username (phptemplate never examined) so I comment it out</p>
<p>2) in realname_make_name better include a caching,<br>
$account->{$fields[0]['name']} is wrong and bring warning because profile field name not always is "name" so I place this checking into loop with condition to work only once<br>
Finally it looks:</p>

<p>Proposals:<br>
- put code from realname_theme.inc to yourthemename_username function in template.php<br>
- avoid $account = user_load(array('uid' => $object->uid)); in theme - it brings a high load on DB if a lot of username on page<br>
- better to use $account->realname in templates and never set 'realname_theme' checkbox!</p>
