How can I make my stage name be what is displayed for donations instead of my real name?

I am a twitch streamer, I want to set up a donation link in the info panels and I know how to set up that link but I do not want my real name displayed should anyone decide to donate, is there a way that Paypal can know my real name but the people who might be making a donation only see me stage name?

Hello @CursingKitty,

Welcome to the PayPal Community, this is a great question. I would recommend setting up your account as a Business Account. When you receive payments into your business account, your patrons would see your business name instead of your first / last name. Here's a bit more about the Difference between Personal and Business accounts.

As a quick pro-tip, make sure you don't set your account up as a non-profit since they are not donations under a 501(c)3, and also make sure you use your real first and last name when first setting up your account. Finally, here's a link to our Business Resource Center for a bit more guidance. 

Good luck!
