Hello @Thulani108 and @kernowlass,
Thanks for posting in the Community!
As @kernowlass said, all PayPal accounts need to be registered in your legal name. @Thulani108, if you own a business, opening a business account is a great idea. You'll have the option to operate under a business name, but you will still initially set the account up under your legal name. Before closing your current account, you'll want to either withdraw your existing balance or transfer it to your new account. If your account was limited due to a fake name, you might need to wait until you receive an email stating you're eligible to withdraw.
I hope this helps!
