Bug Description

indicator-session has the ability to show your name in the menu bar, alongside the system icon. But there is no visible interface to configure this.

<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemMenu#title-setting>: "In the System Settings “User Accounts” panel, at the bottom of the pane for your own account should be a checkbox, “Show my login name in the menu bar”, that is unchecked by default for a new user account."

(This is the sequel to bug 964678.)
