Problem Deleting User

We had a member join our forum under false pretenses, using the name of clergy. It turns out that he's not only not clergy, but is a criminal. Because he had been involved in various discussions on our forums, it seemed better not to delete his posts and disrupt the threads he was involved in. Instead, I tried deleting the user. The system notice was that all user posts would be assigned to "Guest". That sounded just fine. However, the user name still appears as "Fr. Joe Schmoe", and his user title shows "Guest". (Which makes it appear that this person is welcomed as a guest.) I cannot access his profile to make a change since his account was deleted. Neither can I do a search for his posts. Is there any way to fix this?

gonna have to use a DB call.

Code:

UPDATE {prefix}post SET username = 'Guest' WHERE username = 'Joe Schmoe'
