Can I have a second account with different name?

I have a Paypal account for our personal everyday use.  We have started renting out our house.  We want to take rent in thru Paypal but don't want to use our personal account for fear of it getting hacked.  Can we open another personal account for this purpose only?

You are only allowed a maximum of 2 paypal accounts and only then if x1 is personal and the other x1 is business.

If you have 2 of the same type (in the same name) you risk them being limited.

HOWEVER you say 'we' so if you have a personal account then is no reason why the other party can't have a personal account as well.
