Text identifier required for logging in (8)

I believe the answer is:

username

(Other definitions for username that I've seen before include "Something needed for logging in" , "One's identifier on a computer" , "Computer log-in requirement" , "Login ID" , "Person's computer ID" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
