It means that \end{centering} calls \endcentering only if this command exists.
This is due to the way LaTeX environments are defined (the environment end
does not call \endcentering directly, but \csname endcentering\endcsname,
which sets \endcentering to \relax if it is not defined. Hence, LaTeX does not
complain about an undefined \endcentering, but just treat it as if th command
was "empty".
Try
\newcommand\myname{Csikos Bela}
[...]
\begin{myname}
\end{myname}
