I don't think you'll find it in the context object where you're getting the
connection name.  Take a look at the authenticationService module, and the
getCurrentUsername() method, in particular:

https://github.com/apache/incubator-guacamole-client/blob/b8abcd6755f9d44bf9b32daaf240c1361811751d/guacamole/src/main/webapp/app/auth/service/authenticationService.js#L347

You'll need to inject the authenticationService module into your javascript
code, and make sure you make it available to whatever template you're
constructing, but it should be relatively straight-forward to get the
username.
