In Settings:

User > New

Then add their email, name, etc. give permissions and they’re good to go.

By looking at the code, apparently there’s currently no way to login with a user’s username (with the exception of Administrator and Guest accounts). Even the login page (frappe/templates/pages/login.html) expects a user email value:

<form class="form-signin form-login" role="form">
	. . .
	<input type="text" id="login_email"
		class="form-control" placeholder="{{ _('Email address') }}" required autofocus>
	<input type="password" id="login_password"
		class="form-control" placeholder="{{ _('Password') }}" required>
	. . .

However, I suspect that is a feature that will be implemented in the future, because the username field was not part of the User DocType since the beginning.

EDIT - Actually, the field was added to fulfill some new requirement and not to improve the login process. Here’s the request discussion on GitHub:: Feature Request: Notification when user is mentioned in comment · Issue #3495 · frappe/erpnext · GitHub.
