Any reason against naming it "Person" then? Technically we have
metacontacts that are linked to addressbook entries, and accounts
belonging to exactly one metacontact. Conceptually, the technical thing
"metacontact" is a person which ideally already exists in my addressbook.

I wouldn't name it "User" though, as this term is often not only used
for the person itself, but also their accounts.
