You're going to need to provide mode details about:

 * a sample message
 * how it's submitted
 * your configuration

The gecos_name option is used for the Sender: and From: headers when a
message is submitted via the Sendmail-style "invoke a program to send
email" interface and is not used for SMTP submission.

So if you're sending to the new server via SMTP (even localhost:587 or
localhost:25) then gecos_name won't have any effect.

The impact on remote_transport, where you're changing full.name inside
the email address too, suggests to me that this is a "rewrite" found
after "begin rewrites", not something impacted by the gecos_name option.
