Description
Describe the Current Behavior/Feature:
At the moment there is quite a bit of confusion about the differences in Profile and Civic Profile due to the wording, but I think I have a solution to this. We could have "Profile" be changed to "Account" and "Civic Profile" be changed to "Profile" proper.
[Update 12/09/2023] - Other naming conventions could be used as well to make the two distinct. Several other ideas has been proposed such as:
- convention for things associated with webIds like "user menu/user settings"
- utilize alternative wording such as "account"/"settings"
- utilize prefix words like "Pod" or "PASS" to associate profiles like what's done with "Civic Profile"
Rationale:
To clear up what we have now with regards to user information and account information.
Proposed Implementation (if applicable):
For this implementation we could simply rename the pages and routes accordingly.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the pages and routes for Profile and Civic Profile, then clarify with maintainers which naming convention should be adopted because several alternatives remain open. Done means the agreed names are applied consistently to the affected pages and routes, with navigation and wording no longer confusing the two concepts.
