A possible way to discriminate them might be to look at their
storage usage:

  tomas@trotzki:~$ du -s .mozilla/firefox/* | sort -n

The one you've been using most should stick out like a sore
thumb.

Then you look at ~/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini to find out
what the profile's "official" name is.

Cheers, take care
