It's usually the email address listed as the "user id" for the key (or
subkey).
I find it easiest to do this via kgpg, actually - you just right click
and choose "Sign keys" from the menu.
While you could use the person's name, you can run into more then
one key for a person, with different email addresses.
For example, I have keys for both my
infinity-ltd.com address, and
my old
execpc.com email address. I probably should revoke the
execpc.com address, but there are still some RPMs floating around
signed with that key. Besides, I don't remember where I stored the
private key for that one.
