You shouldn't have to do this.  By default the routers exchange their
hostnames as usernames.  You just need to make sure you have a 'username
bleh password blehbleh' configured that matches the password the other
router has configured for your router:

R1 config:
username R2 password blehbleh

R2 config:
username R1 password blehbleh

I think you're better off sorting through it than forcing a username.  Of
course, that's a great solution when you're doing dialup to an ISP, but a
poor solution for DDR with more than a single host.
