So how to retrieve the user name in facebook?

What about this :

$pageContent = file_get_contents('http://graph.facebook.com/USERID');
$parsedJson  = json_decode($pageContent);
echo $parsedJson->name;

Facebook use CURL for send request to server, maybe curl on your server not work or curl_exec is disabled
