Hi @RenuCertyIQ,
Thank you for joining the community. Welcome!
I'm sorry to hear that you have an issue with your name on your account. I regret that because the name you used is not your legal name, you're likely not going to be able to make a name change. A PayPal account cannot change ownership from one person to another, and if you added a random last name, it will appear as if it belongs to another person. You can attempt the name change by following these steps, but the answer I have given is the most likely result. If you need assistance, you can reach out to customer service by following these steps.
I hope this helps!
Olivia
