This is imo a little unclear on why would user want to use this command, I think adding something like "if you're unsure what your username is" would be enough here, but anything that makes it more clear when you should use the command and/or what is the reader "unsure" of is gonna work here so if you think something would fit better here, you can of course put that instead ;)
