Man id says:

       -n, --name
              print a name instead of a number, for -ugG

       -r, --real
              print the real ID instead of the effective ID, with -ugG
Better say:

       -n, --name
              print a name instead of a number, for -u, -g, -G

       -r, --real
              print the real ID instead of the effective ID, with -u,
              -g, -G
