You could use the "title" attribute. If the values for that attributes are
intended to be unique you could use "id" also, although not recommended, yet
it could be done. If you're using DOM for getting that attribute value (I
assume, wrongly perhaps) you could use (this is a javascript based example,
however in other languages the DOM implementation could be similar if not
identical):

var label = [variable holding a <li> element object].getAttribute('title');

then the var label would hold the title attribute value as a string.
