Does the account ID have another name that is also used?

Hello @chriskaye_73,
Welcome to the PayPal Community, this is a great question. Your PayPal account does not have a specific ID. If you're looking to receive payments to your account, you would use the confirmed email address on your account. Here are a few Help Center articles you may find useful:
What is my PayPal account number?
How do I receive money through PayPal?
How do I send money?
I hope that helps,
