How to Easily Display a User’s Name in Magento

If you want to display a user’s name in Magento, it’s a fairly simple process. You can follow these steps:

First, you need to check if the user is logged in. You can use the following code to check if a customer is logged in:

<?php
$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
$customerSession = $objectManager->create('Magento\Customer\Model\Session');
if($customerSession->isLoggedIn()) {
// Customer is logged in
} else {
// Customer is not logged in
}
?>

Once you have confirmed that the customer is logged in, you can retrieve their name using the following code:

<?php
$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
$customerSession = $objectManager->create('Magento\Customer\Model\Session');
$customerName = $customerSession->getCustomer()->getName();
echo 'Welcome, ' . $customerName . '!';
?>

Finally, you can display the customer’s name wherever you want on your site using the $customerName variable.

It’s worth noting that using $objectManager directly is not recommended and it’s better to use dependency injection to retrieve objects in Magento 2.

With these steps, you should now be able to easily display a user’s name in Magento.
