displayUserName ?

Our Crowd server uses displayName (as well as sn, givenName and mail) but that is probably because it is backed by LDAP. Display name gets auto populated with First/Last name, but is editable.

userName sounds too much like a string to use for login, where displayName would mean the name to display in the system. If we add this field, we should edit createPersonAndUserLogin server to set the value to First/Last if its empty as well. Then use this field in the header instead of the party fields.

That seems a good reason, what is used in Crowd ? I suggested userName because it's related to userLogin. What about displayUserName ?

displayName is a common field used in LDAP systems. Which is
really the only reason I suggested it. Usually its the
first/last name together but its totally arbitrary.
