You can set the "User home folder naming rule" (Advanced LDAP settings, 
Special attributes) to avoid that. In the notifications the "User 
Display name field" is used (Advanced LDAP settings, Directory section).

If you want to make sure OC doesn't use these UUIDs at all, you can also 
overwrite the value of the "owncloud_name" in the "oc_ldap_user_mapping" 
table of the OC database, right after creating the user, but before 
anyone has a chance to log in.
