Take the tour ×  I can't find it in the Graph API, is there some
way to get the alternate name someone fills out in their Account
Settings?  share|improve this question add comment  2 Answers

access this field via the API by any means i'm aware of, you
could file a wishlist item in the bug tracker, it may get picked
up and implemented.  share|improve this answer add comment  Do
you mean the user's 'username'? It's a field in the User Graph
Object. For example, if you want 'btaylor' returned for this
user, https://www.facebook.com/btaylor, you'd grab the
'username' field from the User Graph Object, as in this example:
https://graph.facebook.com/btaylor.  share|improve this answer
No, he means the 'alternate' name field, it's frequently used
for users to enter their pre-marriage name, or a celebrity name
they're known under (e.g Snoop Dogg's profile:
facebook.com/calvinbroadus - the 'Snoop Dogg' after his real
name is the 'alternate name' field ) –
