My vote would go for option 2). Screen_name, which I tend to think of as 'Alias', does have it uses, and my hope is that some day it can be used as an option in place of the user's real name in places like the forums etc. Openness is a nice policy, yet there are situations, where it makes perfect sense to have the possibility of obscuring the identity of individuals in online forums etc.
