Comment(by demetris):

 @scribu: I understand your reasoning, and I imagined some idea like might
 have been behind the change, but I think the Username/Name is the best.
 Consider the alternatives:

  *  Login/Name: You say it is clearer, but I don’t think many user would
 agree.  Also, it also introduces inconsistencies in our usage.
  *  Username/Displayname: Problematic, because the display name is not
 always the real name.
  *  Username/Real name: A nonstarter. :-)
  *  Login name/Name: Clear, but incosistent with our usage and also with
 the general usage.

 In short, I think what we had before was just fine.
