Following up on what Dana mentions, I suggest we use the user's first name, which can be determined from user information in About Me if it is provided, or by taking the first word in the long username.

Examples:

User A: Full name is "Johnny Appleseed", username is "haxxor", directory is /home/johnny, label is "Johnny".
User B: Full name is "Jamshed Kakkar", username is "jkakkar", directory is /home/jkakkar, label is "Jamshed".
User B: Full name is "Sarah Ann Leonard", username is "saleonard09", directory is /home/saleonard09, label is "Sarah".

If the user adds his/her first name information in About Me, we would update the labels to use the user's preferred name.
