Hi there Nicolablades197.

Thanks for reaching out.

In order for you to complete the verification process of your bank linked to PayPal, the information on your bank would need to match the information on your PayPal account.

If there are any differences and you try verifying your bank account, it would depend on if your bank accepts the information that PayPal send to them when completing the verification process. 

If you do try verifying your bank account, you should reach out to your bank and let them know that you are going to try verifying your bank account and the name is different to how it appears on your bank. If they accept the information, this will complete the verification process on your bank linked to PayPal.

I hope this helps.

David.
