Pinged users with almost the same username won't display properly

Anmærkning 2019-06-02 131511
As you can see in the picture above, the plugin doesn't seem to render the pinged users properly even though I have saved the two different pinged users in the database and send it as data to the ajax calls.
// I'm not using the function below:

/*
            var saveComment = function (data) {
                // Convert pings to human readable format
                $(Object.keys(data.pings)).each(function (index, userId) {
                    var fullname = data.pings[userId];
                    var pingText = '@' + fullname;
                    data.content = data.content.replace(new RegExp('@' + userId, 'g'), pingText);
                });
                return data;
            };
            */

Yes, the reason why I'm not using the saveComment function is that I'm replacing the user ids with the usernames on the server side instead.
