Hello,
I have an activity online where I do some services to people across the globe and I want to receive funds into my PayPal account ,however I want my full name to remain private because I am known with a stage name. I want my private life to remain private. is that possible?
I don't mind if people see my initials, but I don't want people to know my full name, it doesn't match with my stage name.
If is not possible on PayPal, could you recommend something else?
I am using Patreon, but it looks too complicated and many people just walk away midway because it's too complicated for them
Thanks in advance

Hi @MVG9000,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the Community Forum!
I understand wanting to have your full name private when receiving money. Please know, it is required to register a PayPal account under your legal name, not a nickname. A user's first and last name will be shown along with the email address. However, if you are a registered business, you can use your business name. I hope this answers your questions further.
