callsign
Pilot's broadcast name
A callsign is an identifier assigned to a radio transmitter or its operator, used in aviation, military, and amateur radio to establish identity during communications: What's your callsign, pilot?
Military units and personnel often use callsigns as tactical names.
The term extends to usernames or handles in online communities, especially gaming: My callsign on the server is Ghost.
