Question about assigning a name?

Question

Hey there!

I'm currently working on a SurfaceGUI. I don't want others to mess with it. So, I followed this way;

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	if game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name == game.workspace.Part.SurfaceGui.Welcome.TextLabel.Text  -- I'm trying to make sure that person who logged into my register is the same person that is going to sign out.
	then
	script.Parent.Parent.Welcome.TextLabel.Text = "CLICK TO START WORKING"
	
else
	game.Players.LocalPlayer:kick("Test")  --My problem is here, is this statement right? If any one else press the "SIGN OUT" button they will get a kick.
	end
end)

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() --Ignore this part, some frames I did...
	script.Parent.Parent.TextButton.Visible = true
	script.Parent.Parent.TextButton.Active = true
	script.Parent.Parent.TextButton.BackgroundTransparency = 0
	
end)

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
	script.Parent.Active = false
	script.Parent.Visible = false
	script.Parent.BackgroundTransparency = 1
	script.Parent.Parent.takeorder.Visible = false
	script.Parent.Parent.takeorder.Active = false
	script.Parent.Parent.takeorder.BackgroundTransparency = 1
	
end)

So, I want to know if is it correct to say that in a script statement (8th line). Is there any other way to represent the Local Player.

My intention is to give the player a variable as

X = The player who logged into the register. Y = Any other player who tried to log out.

I tried to do it by assigning the Logged player and got his/her username then printed into my text label, then I made a statement like game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name == game.workspace.part.SurfaceGui.Welcome.TextLabel.Text

If you're free to share, is there any other commands inside Roblox studio to get the name of the logged user and store it as a variable.

Thank you.
