It would be nice to have the possibilty to set a nickname instead of having the authors-Name in the blog.

Doesn't really sound like something this module should deal with, on a first glance. This is intended to be a lightweight module, and maintaining and storing nicknames would be a lot of overhead.

The core blog module already outputs usernames with the format_username() function, which allows the displayed username to easily be altered by contrib modules.

So it should be possible to write some generic module which allows nicknames to be chosen for users; and if that ever happens the nickname would automatically be used for the users' blogs as well.

I'll have a look and try to find another way to solve defiance;)
