Firefox is autofilling usernames/emails that aren't in my saved list

more options

When I try and log into a website (lets take a signup page for example) FF will offer me a dropdown of my common usernames and emails, but also the email of my wife.

The thing is, in the privacy settings, there is not username section, only passwords and within that list her email doesn't come up once.

I have no idea how to remove this autofill but there are a bunch of old emails and usernames etc in there that are just in the way and I'd like to get rid of. Anyone any idea how to fix?

There are two types of suggestions in drop-downs below form fields. One type is a login (username and password pair, linked to a specific site), which should be listed on the page opened with

menu button > Passwords

The other type is form history. These options tend to look very basic compared with saved logins. To remove a form history suggestion, use the down arrow key to select it on the list and then press Delete or Shift+Delete to remove it. More info on form history: Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms.
