I am trying to pass the currently logged in Azure AD user identity into the ajax method so it can be used as the input parameter in the window.location.href

@section Scripts {
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $("#button").click(function () {
        var orderedQuantity = $("#txt").val();
        var orderId = $("#orderId").val();
        var data = {
            orderId: orderId,
            orderedQuantity: orderedQuantity,
        }
        var loggedUser = @User.Identity.Name;

        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: '@Url.Action("EditItem", "Orders")',
            data: data,
            dataType: "json",
            success: function (result) {
                if (result.status === "NotAvailable") {
                   $("#errorMessage").val("Enter a valid Quantity");
                }
                else {
                    var url = '@Url.Action("Index", "Orders")';
                    window.location.href = url   "?custEmail=" loggedUser;
                }
            },
            error: function (error) {
                    alert(error);
                }
        });
    });
    </script>

I am storing the @User.Identity.Name; in the loggedUser variable and using it as the input paramter in the window.location.href = url "?custEmail=" loggedUser;. It throws error like Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token

Can anyone say if I am missing anything here.. I am passing the input paramter to the Orders page like this in other places and it fails in ajax method. I even tried to like below

var loggedUser = User.Identity.Name;

It even errors out like Uncaught ReferenceError: User is not defined

Can anyone suggest what is that I am missing here

Please add quotation marks like below:

var loggedUser = "@User.Identity.Name";  //or `@User.Identity.Name`
