Is not "user name" better? For me, that has been using Unix-based system 
for over 20 years, that is far more easy to understand. Although, I have 
to admit that "login name" is better than "short name". I would never 
have known what "short name" was used for, if I saw it on "create a new 
user account" screen. So, as the dialog says "user account", "User name" 
would also be the logical choice.
