Hi. Can you give a piece of code you are trying to run? Also please share server type and version.

[Armyanin]

from mcpi.minecraft import Minecraft
mc=Minecraft.create(address='myserver.com')
mc.getPlayerEntityId('Nekto')
server 1.15.2 mcpi 1.0.2

[Marcinosoft]

What server type are you using? Spigot, Paper, something else?
About mcpi, please use latest one which is 1.2.0, not 1.0.2 (unless you made a typo).
https://pypi.org/project/mcpi/

Try to list all currently connected users this way, maybe this help figure out why your nickname is not found:

from mcpi.minecraft import Minecraft
mc=Minecraft.create(address='myserver.com')

player_ids = mc.getPlayerEntityIds()
for player_id in player_ids:
    print(f'Player id={player_id}, nick={mc.entity.getName(player_id)}')
