Many People Use Fake Names

Many famous people use fake or pen names to protect their privacy: Mark Twain, The Rock, Hulk Hogan, and Dr. Seuss just to name a few.

Mark Twain's real name is Samuel Clemens
The Rock...Dwayne Johnson
Hulk Hogan...Terry Bollea
Dr. Seuss...Theodor Geisel


Famous people often use a pen name or a fake name to protect themselves from people they do not know.

To protect yourself from strangers, you should use a screen name that doesn't reveal anything about you.
