It sounds like the login screen default offering is 'Linux Lite' which is what you entered as 'Your Name' (real name) rather than the actual username of the account which you entered in the 'Pick a Username' field.
Lazily I've always entered the same for both fields so was a bit confused by your description and thought you'd added an account.
'Linux Lite' is not a valid username as it contains a space, so my guess is that 'Linux Lite' is just an alias for your real account name.
What happens if you enter your password in response to the 'Linux Lite' id ?
Do you get in to your system ?
If you do try this to confirm the username.
If this works there's no need for another account, but if you did, Lite User Manager allows you to set up and delete user accounts. This is under Control Panel in the System section. There are equivalent command line options. Take care while manipulating accounts as it is easily possible to do something negative.

For a one off payment the bank transfer worked for me.
I've changed the title as requested and marked as solved even though it is a workaround rather than a resolution.
