Drupal 7 - show logged in user full name and email id

I know that I can fetch the logged in user's name as 

<?php
global $user;
print $user->name;
?>

However, I want to know how to show logged in user's full name (first and last name) and email id. Any help?

If you are still using drupal 7. you can get the user profile like this:

global $user;

$account = user_load($user->uid);

$user_email = $account->field_profile_email[LANGUAGE_NONE][0]["email"];

$user_first_name = $account->field_first_names[LANGUAGE_NONE][0]["value"];

$user_last_name = $account->field_surname[LANGUAGE_NONE][0]["value"];

$user_full_name = "$user_first_name $user_last_name";

You could use print_r($user) to look at the $user object. But i dont think global $user includes profile fields, so you might have to load the user object again like so:

global $user;
$account = user_load($user->uid);
print_r($account);

And the email field is usually: 

$user->mail;
