What if we name it... ok, I am joking :-)

As I stated before username parameter is mapped to userLoginId at
many
places in ofbiz.
+1 for displayName.

I'm for displayName... when people say "user name" they usually
mean what
we call "user login ID", so that would be more confusing.

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 used in LDAP? Sweet! In that case...
+1 for displayName

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.
