I think it's by design. theme_username() truncates long user names (>20 chars) so it won't break layout. You may want to modify or override it with your-theme_username().

I have a user with a long (real name as user) name - the "Submitted by" under her blog posts is truncating it as "Submitted by Firstname La...". There is extra space in the container - the author and date don't fill the entire width, but it's cutting off the name before the date field. How can I make it show the full user name? I can't tell from searching whether this needs to be fixed in the theme css or in the template files or what. It's not even an unusual name.
