Open ./global.php and search for;

Code:
// Format the welcome back message
 
$lang->welcome_back = $lang->sprintf($lang->welcome_back, $mybb->user['username'], $lastvisit);

and Change it into;

Code:
// Format the welcome back message
 
$formatted_username = format_name($mybb->user['username'], $mybb->user['usergroup'], $mybb->user['displaygroup']);
 
$lang->welcome_back = $lang->sprintf($lang->welcome_back, $formatted_username, $lastvisit);
