How can I delete a wrong username I've mispelled in a form and FF saved and now always shows me up, without deleting my whole archive of saved data?

I've mispelled my username in a form of a site I'm used to write in. Firefox saved this wrong name and now every time I try to log in it shows me always this one also in a combo list of usernames without letting me just log in with the right one as before. How can I delete it without deleting the whole archive of saved data (as the "del" key in the desktop version)? Thanks

If you type the correct username as a replacement for the wrong one it should ask if you want to update the user name on ______.com ,if not you should make sure "Remember Passwords for sites" is checked.

Thanks for your answer. No, it doesn't. I have both the right one (that was already saved) and the wrong one in a combo from which I always have to choose. I just would like to delete the wrong one, but I don't see any option except deleting every personal data of mine (what I wouldn't do).

Try going into the password manager and deleting the username for the website, then when you login save the password.
