        public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
            for (DataSnapshot childSnapshot: dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {

To get a particular user, you need to use in your DatabaseReference his unique identifier. So, you need to change this line:

DataRef = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("UserNode");

with

FirebaseUser firebaseUser = firebaseAuth.getCurrentUser();
String uid = firebaseUser.getUid();
String uid = firebaseUser.getDisplayName(); //display the entire name
DataRef = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("UserNode").child(uid);

And please use this code:

DataRef.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
    @Override
    public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
        String acctname = childSnapshot.child("firstname").getValue(String.class);
        Log.i("name", acctname);
    }

    @Override
    public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
        Log.e("error", databaseError.getMessage());
    }
});
