The command works and all, but the scoreboard and chat still displays the original name.
I think you have to write a method to refresh those things, so they get the new playername. Normally that wouldn't be necessary because you must disconnect to change your name (or am I wrong?).

No. Usually it takes a minute to update the names, but you don't have to disconnect for the most part.

I barely know lua, let alone Glua.

I dunno if a refresh function is possible.
