How can I keep the name of the user around for each JSP without asking user

Question

I have a number of JSP pages that I give the user access to once they login successfully. I want to be able to keep the name of the user present on every page without having to ask them for it each time.
How can I do this? Currently I have a user object that is access through use of a request bean in my JSP's.
Any suggestions???

Thanks for the help. A few questions though...
Can you just clarify how the 2 different SessionTest2.jsp's differ. I am right in thinking that the second one will instantiate a new bean object which if I do every time I go to the page, I will be getting the same name but in a different session each time. In the first SessionTest.jsp, I get the same name but from the same session object each time??
Please clarify???
SessionTest1.jsp
<%@ page language="java" import="test.*" %>
<jsp:useBean id="testBean" scope="session"
class="test.TestBean" />
<jsp:setProperty name="testBean" property="name"
value="ZZZZZ" />
<jsp:setProperty name="testBean" property="status"
value="Married" />
<%
     response.sendRedirect("SessionTest2.jsp");
     return;
%>
SessionTest2.jsp
<%@ page import="test.*" %>
<jsp:useBean id="testBean" scope="session"
class="test.TestBean" />
<%
out.println("User Name is : "+testBean.getName());
%>or SessionTest2.jsp
<%@ page import="test.*" %>
<jsp:useBean id="testBean" scope="session"
class="test.TestBean" />
<%
TestBean testBean =
(TestBean)session.getAttribute("testBean");
     out.println("Name is : "+testBean.getName());
%>Hope this helps.
