Code

function auto_username_generate_username(&$edit, &$account) {
  $new_name = "";

  // Other modules may implement hook_auto_username_name($edit, $account) to generate a username (return a
  // string to be used as the username, NULL to have auto_username generate it).
  $names = module_invoke_all('auto_username_name', $edit, $account);

  // Remove any empty entries.
  $names = array_filter($names);
  if (empty($names)) {

    // Default implementation of name generation.
    $new_name = _auto_username_patternprocessor($account);

    // One would expect a single implementation of the hook, but if there
    // are multiples out there use the last one.
    $new_name = array_pop($names);
  }

  // If no new name was found, then either the hook hasn't been implemented, or
  // the aun_pattern hasn't been set yet. Therefore leave the username as it is.
  if (empty($new_name)) {
    return $account->name;
  }

  // lets check if our name is used somewhere else, and append _1 if it is  eg:(chris_123). We do this regardless of
  // whether hook has run, as we can't assume the hook implementation will do this santity check.
