I suggest that when you press Edit, new empty boxes appear (with some hinting at what they are for), where you then use one to name the data and the other to store the data. It would probably look good, if in Edit mode the layout switched to a table.
Additionally, it may be of great UX value to add common "data types" suggestions in that table, for easy population. Things like:

  • Username (actual username on site)
  • Email (for the rare username password logins or for recovery)
  • Security Question (when you finish one, maybe another should pop up)
  • General Notes (what is this, why do I have an account there, is this an alt account, special considerations for logging in like needing your phone and another password in an app, etc.)
  • URL (human readable, human searchable, perhaps the place you go to before clicking login)
  • Whatever the most frequently used custom thing is
  • Whatever the last used custom thing was (if not also prior)

What these common-data-types-for-easy- population are should be possible for the user to change, i.e. also define their own and change the order. This should include whether a field should appear outside of edit mode, like for missing usernames. Obviously, data types the user has created previously should be suggested, when creating a new one.
