User name shown by smbstatus is the name of the local user, not the user which connected to the share. The original name might have already been transformed with the help of 'username map' option in smb.conf.

Supposedly, you have one-to-one name mapping between incoming users and local POSIX users. In this case you can use 'wbinfo --uid-to-sid leon' to get Security Identifier (SID) of the user 'leon', and as next step do 'wbinfo --sid-to-fullname sid' to convert SID to fully qualified user name (DOMAIN\user).
