For the sake of studying the capabilities of the Telegram API, the question arose, how to get the @username of a bot in a telegram using aiogram?

I tried username = bot.get_me().username but gives the following error:
AttributeError: 'coroutine' object has no attribute 'username'
How can this be fixed?

You can get the username of the bot by calling get_me on the Bot object.

The returned objects hold the username you are looking for.

Example code:
```
async def main():
    bot = Bot(token='859163076:AAEjLUL8Lx67blablalblalblalbal')
    info = await bot.get_me();
    name = info.username

    print(name) 

asyncio.run(main())
```
