Public bug reported:

Recently, my Ubuntu 20.04.1 login screen started showing my username as
a dot-dot-dot, with a vertical scroll, despite being my user name only
four letters (i.e.: kopa). It is the only user account in the system
too.

I've attached a screenshot of the login screen where the issue can be
seen.

GDM here is version 3.34.1-1ubuntu1. I'm running Xorg (no wayland). No
changes to its configuration were made.

I can provide whatever extra information that could be useful in
diagnosing this problem.

Thank you.
