Change "sign in name" terminology

Question

We've received feedback from some pilot testers that the term "sign in name" here is confusing:

At every other juncture (even on the same page), it's called "username". But above the actual field, it's called "sign in name". This is feedback from non-native English speakers, and we have many non-native English speakers on our community, so I'd like to respond to it. 
 Can you tell me how I can change that? Where do I go in order to change "sign in name" in the red circle above to "username"?

, for any text you want to change, you'll find this under changing Widget Resources 
 
 Go into Administration -> Interface -> Widget Studio 
 Find the "User - Login and Create" widget 
 Click on "Resources" 
 Resources have a Name (what the code looks for) and a Value (the text in a specific language) 
 Find "Login_SignInName" and you can change the English Value 
 After the change, it will ask you to publish the widget 
 
 As always, it's best practice to do this on Staging first, then Production

To edit the Login Page go to the Root Home Page and click on Pencil Icon : Manage SiteTheme>Manage Pages>Login Click on Edit Layout. You can configure the User Login and Create widget to select the login option.

You also have the option to simply change the login from Sign In Name to Email Address, or either, without having to modify a widget.
