Can I hide my name from my paypal.me link?

I want to use a paypal.me link to receive payments, but for personal reasons, I don't want people knowing my legal first name. Is there any way to hide it from the page?

Hi celestial,

 

Thank you for reaching out! I'd be happy to help!

 

Your name as it appears in your account (which is, of course, your legal name) is information that a counterparty in a transaction would have access to. That information is also available in the paypal.me payment page.

 

I hope this helps clarify!
