Public bug reported:
This is a follow-up from bug 1600638.
Debian's adduser does not allow the initial character of a username to
be a digit. It would be nice if (unity/gnome)-control-center could
detect this and disallow it or recommend against it.
What happens
============
A popup that says
Failed to add account
running '/usr/sbin/adduser' failed: Child process exited with code 1'
