Display name that is not my legal name?

I unfortunately have not quite gotten my legal name changed, however I’m uncomfortable sharing my legal name with people when requesting or sending money. I would like a way to create a display name that hides my legal name from the public for privacy reasons, or at least an option to display only my username. I do not want people to be able to see my full legal name.

I wouldn't want to deal or buy with anyone that is not going to provide me with their legal name !!!

You have to have your legal name on your paypal account UNLESS you are a registered business and have a business account.
