You are supposed to use your legal name when you open a paypal account.
If you have not done that or used a nickname instead then you will have problems with KYC / receiving and withdrawing funds and at some point your account may be limited.

I would suggest removing anything you added to that account and if you can close it.
You should be able to as long as the account does not have any limitations on it, if it does then you may have to contact customer services to help you close it if that is an option.
Then you should be able to use the same email address to open a new account with your correct legal name if that was the issue.
