I have an interesting idea for home folder name: compare the short username to the first-name in "About Me", and if it maches (besides case), then display the name with capitalization as in "About Me". For example, I have my username as "dana" (lowercase), and we could display the folder name as "Dana".
Here's what I see right now:
Gnome "Places" menu: "Home Folder"
Icon on desktop (if gconf key set to show it): "dana's Home" -- this might be good, if we fix the capitalization.
Also, I have had desktop_as_home_dir set until just now, so the following may not match the out-of-box configuration:
Location bar in nautilus: /home/dana
Sidebar in nautilus: (not present)
