it takes the name from the address book.

if you have yourself as Your Name and have set your AIM account to be yourmaccomaccount@mac.com, or youraimaccount, and then use that in iChat, you will see Your Name. Like you see Your Friend when you have yourfriendsmaccomaccount@mac.com and he logs in that one.

No one else will see your name. So everyone else see you as yourichatattountname@mac.com (or aim ..) .. and they don't see your name, unless they have saved you to THEIR addressbook. No worries.
