Oh, then I have a different behaviour of Ubuntu as you :-) Have a look
to figure 4.1 in the manual (04-bluetooth-left-click.png). There I
used "Ubuntu User" as full name for the user account, and the user
name is "ubuntu". But in the picture I have the full name, not the
user name.

You are right, but this is mentioned in the manual in section "Who are
you?", page 15.
