title: How to get current user's username with Meteor
body: <p>So far I've been looking all over the interwebs and the Meteor docs but nothing has been working for me.</p>
  
  <p>I am creating an account with</p>
  
  <pre><code>Accounts.createUser({
      username: username,
      email: email,
      password: password
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And I know that is working since <code>{{#if currentUser}}</code> is working.</p>
  
  <p>However, I am trying to get the current logged-in user's username with something such as</p>
  
  <pre><code>var username = Meteor.userId();
  console.log(username);
  
  var username = Meteor.userId().username;
  console.log(username);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But neither is working, when I use <code>Meteor.userId()</code> I just get a random(I'm guessing encrypted) string of numbers and letters, and when I use <code>Meteor.userId().username</code> it says it's undefined.</p>
  
  <p>All help is welcome and sorry for my possibly terrible grammar, It's <strong>very</strong> late here!</p>
