The user-fullname gets it default value in the package 'live-config', in 
the file /lib/live/init-config.sh

If you embed a file in the live image in live/config.conf (or 
live/config.conf.d/*.conf) it will work as intended.
Since you provided the name during 'lb config', I assume that you are 
not really intending the name to be configurable during boot. Therefore 
the following snippet will provide your custom user fullname:

lb config
mkdir -p config/includes.binary/live
echo "LIVE_USER_FULLNAME=\"This is my custom user fullname\"" > 
config/includes.binary/live/config.conf
lb build

With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
