I just created an account. However, I registered with my real name. I'm in Vietnam, but the naming system has my name mixed up. I want to change my name to a nickname. Can I close my Email account. And re-register with the email just closed or not? Thank you very much for your support

You can't use a nickname on a legal financial paypal account.
If you do then you may get a permanent ban / not be able to receive or withdraw funds etc.
To change a mix up in your legal name then......
