On a Windows installation in the folder Squeak/Pharo is installed a file named "Squeak.ini" is created. I cannot ascertain right now if contents are exactly the same that in Linux as I'm at work w/o access to a Linux machine.  Ideally the interface (from Pharo code) should be the same.

I suppose you refer to the last time you enter your name on *other*
image as if it is the same image, it won't ask for the full name as
already have it.

I think that someone (maybe you) asked for the capability of storing the
full name on the computer disk and if found it will pre-fill the prompt.
I can add this to the author code, but just need to ask if:

- is there a convention for storing squeak/pharo settings e.g. in linux
could be a .squeak/ or .pharo/ folder on the $HOME of the user. In
windows I suppose that in my documents but I really don't use it so I
don't know.
- is there a convention for storing this files besides the
image/changes/sources files. This is as the current pharo/squeak works,
I think.
- the preference browser has the capability of storing the preferences
in a file. Maybe this could be reused and include the full name and try
to read from there on first full name prompt.

Who is in favor, who is against?

Will be useful to other users to have this, supposing the they change
image often, or the hassle of writing by hand once for image it is
negligible?
