Changing from usernames to realnames

Hi there,
For a number of reasons (such as FB integration) I want to change my Easysocial setup from using username to realname as the default profile name.
However, to achieve this I need to replace all of the existing realnames with the current usernames
(This is to ensure users don't see any difference on profiles when they log in)

Can I do this with in the database a simple SQL statement to update the "_user" table
Or are there other things I need to consider first (such as the easysocial alias) or other Easysocial fields which would be affected by the change?
