 Bonus Tip:If you want to short the mentioning user name just hit backspace and remove his/her sir name or last name.Now,it will be only Govind as in this example.Its looking nice rather than the full name.Suppose if a user have a very long name,then it will look odd.Isn't it?

www.facebook.com/Username of that user.For ex. In my case it's: www.facebook.com/Gvndchoudhary.Gvndchoudhary is ma facebook username.Now to tag such facebook user who have custom name for their profile,you need their profile id number and to get  facebook profile id number first go to https://graph.facebook.com/  And add the custom name of the user you are going to mentioning at last.

For ex.In mine https://graph.facebook.com/Gvndchoudhary replace my username with your's and hit enter.now you will shown the id of that user at top,just copy it and paste in that syntax.

For ex. @[100001099951755:Govind Choudhary]"

      @Libin What error you are getting? Just type '@' symbol followed by the tag person name without any space to tag any friend and fan page as well.
