change abbreviated language profile name to longer form. #18

This isn't a bug really.  Would it be possible to just rename the short name 
profiles with their corresponding long form name? Or maybe add a way to store 
both long and short names and add a method like "detectLongName" or 
"detectShortName"?

This would be better just in case more profiles are added and no one is 
dependent on translating the short name to a long name in their own code base.

Hence the long name is dependend on user's language, I think each application 
must solve the whole language name if necessarily.

Java's Locale class can be used to get the long name of a language in your (or 
another) language.  It's not a simple matter of storing a single full name for 
a language, because different people call it different things.
