Do I need to have a "business" to switch to a business account?

So I'm looking to start selling goods and I would like to upgrade to a business account so that I can utilize the ability to hide personal information, like my full name. However, it requires me to enter a "Legal business name" as well as a "Business phone number" when upgrading to a business account. I do not have a business, I just have digital goods and services that I'm looking to sell. Am I able to just put my personal number for the "Business phone number" box? And what can I put in the "Legal business name" box if I don't have a business...? Can I make something up... is it important or does it even matter? I'm just making sure to check with the community for answers to these questions so that I don't do something I shouldn't do. Thank you!
