php session if statement echo

Question

I don´t know if this is possible, but im trying to make a session if statement or something, like if the session name is "Simon" it will print a specific text, if the session name is not "Simon" it will do nothing.

This is part of my code and it work:

Part of the user login page:

$_SESSION['user'] = $row;

Part of the page i need the code on, now i just use it to print out the name of the person logged in:

   session_start();
   if(empty($_SESSION['user']))
   {
    header("Location: index.php");
    die("Redirecting to index.php");
   }

   echo htmlentities($_SESSION['user']['username'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');

Are you talking about session name or session value??

if(isset($_SESSION['user']['username'])){

  if($_SESSION['user']['username'] == "simon"){
   echo "Specific text here";
   }
}

For printing the name of the person logged in

if(isset($_SESSION['user']['username'])){
    echo "Welcome". $_SESSION['user']['username'];
    }
