Do you use your real name on Facebook/Myspace/Flickr/Youtube/Twitter/Craigslist/Livejournal etc?

I only use my real name on facebook, but I really didn't like the fact that everyone was doing it... :(
Apparently you can fake it now just slightly, but it won't feel the same as it was on bebo/myspace etc.
 
Never ever.
Edit:
by that i mean my last name. My first name (Felix) is usually somehow involved.

f.
 
I always use my real name... everywhere, where possible. Simply because I think a lot of 'internet names' people label themselves with are pretty lame.
 
You can change your display name [acronym=as far as i know]afaik[/acronym].
 
I use Emor, but my real name is, Emma.
People from my high school are pathetic and go to ridiculous lengths to track me down.
Most of them call me Emor to just rub in the fact they found out most of the sites I visit. Only some people actually call me Emma there.

EMZ=]
 
Let me know if any real-life 'friends' give you crap on this site and i'll just ban them. :)
Or possibly IP ban them... but then that just sounds too cruel :lol:
and one of us could end up having their IP... like what happened to me on WP :lol:
 
Boy, do I know how you feel! My enemies went out of their way to make my life miserable too. It was their whole life. Take that away from them and they would do nothing, have nothing and be nothing.


Yes, you can change your name on Facebook.

Thanks. I doubt they'd find me here 'cause I never talk about my AS to anyone at school(and they've only found my YouTube channel and stuff 'cause I've slipped up and mentioned something in a conversation with someone).
And that sucks, Ana :(. Some people are just total arseholes and hate people for no reason :/.

Maybe...? If I was you... I wouldn't talk about this site if you don't want to know about it. :lol:
That's what I end up doing... :) But my girlfriend found out about Wrongplanet and thought everything I wrote was really sweet... at least I got a positive reaction from it... But it depends really? At least you put a different picture so they won't recognise you :lol:

I should of done that, but i don't mind anyways, as long as they don't bully me for it.. then i'm okay :D
 
I use my real name on Facebook, because I only have a close knit few friends who I talk to a lot, I used to be very open online and talk about my life and stuff, I don't do that any more due to problems with idiot Daily Fail/Telegraph readers slagging me off for not being in paid employment due to having AS and other disabilities. it's not like I haven't tried to get a job, but beyond the voluntary sector nobody will employ PWDs (People With Disabilities).
 
I use my "real" name (which is not my legal name but it's the name I go by in real life, even at work) on Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter, but on YouTube, Tumblr and here (obviously) I have a username.
YouTube tried to get everyone to use their real names a few years ago, but I resisted because my channel is known by the username and I wanted to keep it the way it was from the beginning.
