I have a personal and a blog Paypal address. My blog one has my pseudonym, not my real name.

I use my personal account and just added the Narrow Bridge e-mails (eric@narrowbridge.net and paypal@narrowbridge.net) so I can get payments from those addresses too.

Mine is in the business (LLC) name, but the business name has my own last name in it. So I guess I'm in both camps. LOL

I actually use my personal account with my name on it. I suppose I should change that! Thanks for the question.

Buck if you are wondering if your real name will be exposed, then yes. The name you used when you registered with PayPal will be shown atleast when sending. I'm not sure while receiving though.

If you have a personal account, no way you can hide your real name. If your blog is registered as a business, then of course, that can be different from your real name.

Paypal is pretty neat in that you can add additional email addresses and names to the same account. I kept my personal account since I operate as a sole proprietorship, but added the Payments@mpfj.com email address to use to make things look a little more professional.

Budgeting in the Fun Stuff on PayPal Name

I use my personal paypal account that I've had forever. It does show my name, but since I'm operating as a sole proprietor, it is probably the easiest way to do it. If you're operating as a business with a business structure, it would probably best to use a business account with the business name on it.

Hi all,

When you pay or receive payment, does your name appear? Do you use a PayPal business account to display your business name?
