--- Comment #2 from alexxcons <acs82 at gmx.de> ---
It's a bit more complex.
Thunar somehow extracts the "name" and the "realname" of the user from
"getpwuid" ... dont ask me how to set this "realname", but it looks like it can
be different from "name". "realname" can be NULL in some cases, than only
"name" is shown.

What I finally did: If both are identical ( which usually is the case ) than
only name is displayed. Like that the current functionality is kept without
adding another, possibly confusing, configuration option.

Fixed for master, will be released in thunar 1.8
