It would be nice if patrons could pick their own username when registering for a card and/or edit their username via the patron account.
Still valid
I like this idea. Other library systems sometimes call this an "alias". I find it very useful as it makes it easier to interact with the library.
We already have another field for alias... as the username is used to log into Koha it has to be unique, so I think not quite the same?

You are right, I was thinking of "othernames" because of the German translation.
