You can mass subscribe members with real names. See the FAQ at
<http://wiki.list.org/x/YoA9>.

Also, members can provide a real name when subscribing from the web.

Brian's issue is he want's to see the real name in the 'roster', not
just in the admin membership list.

This was implemented for Mailman 2.2, but that will not be officially
released (see
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2009-November/020858.html>).

The display of real name in the roster can be added to Mailman 2.1 by
adding three lines to Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py as indicated in the
change at
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.2/revision/1034>.
