USERNAME

Documentation I've used, even for Ubuntu related things, uses the following
convention:

<username>

I agree that backticks are ineffective. The key thing is to use something
consistent for all variables that can't be confused with something you would
enter on the command line. If a change is made to USERNAME then a change
should also be made to all other command line variables using a similar all
caps designation.
