Notice this (from the documentation regarding "uss add")

---------------------
-realname 
Specifies the user's full name. If it contains spaces or punctuation,
surround it with double quotes. If not provided, it defaults to the user
name provided with the -user argument.

Corresponding variable in the template file: $NAME. Many operating
systems include a field for the full name in a user's entry in the local
password file (/etc/passwd or equivalent), and this variable can be used
to pass a value to be used in that field.
---------------------

It is just a way to pass the realname to the operating system while
creating a user account.

Ask your operating system where your usernames are.
