Get profile.name with Meteor.users.find()

I can get normal fields such as _id and username using:

users: function () {
      return Meteor.users.find({}, {fields:{_id:1,username:1}});
}

But how do I get the profile.name that is from Facebook/Google/Twitter?

Use http://docs.meteor.com/#/full/accounts_oncreateuser hook to write profile.name.

Accounts.onCreateUser(function(options, user) {
    // We still want the default hook's 'profile' behavior.
    if (options.profile) {
        user.profile = options.profile;
        user.profile.memberSince = new Date();

        // Copy data from Facebook to user object
        user.profile.facebookId = user.services.facebook.id;
        user.profile.firstName = user.services.facebook.first_name;
        user.profile.email = user.services.facebook.email;
        user.profile.link = user.services.facebook.link;
    }

    return user;
});
