Sebastien, Thanks for asking!

As requested, I did the following:
sudo apt-get install d-feet
from Dash, I called up d-feet, used the File menu -> Connect to System Bus
- go to org.freedesktop.org.Accounts on the left
- select their path corresponding to their UID on the right, i.e User1000 (mine 
was 1101)
- go to Properties, select "RealName" and get the values of those lines?
I had 2 lines for String RealName = Michael on each line; both the same.

michael@saturn:~$ dpkg -l accountsservice
