Rarely, if ever, does anybody use their real names on the web.
It is probably because they are afraid or just being like everybody else and choosing some creative name. (I think all those have been taken.)
Why do you choose to remain anonymous and not use your real name?

Is it for fear of somebody finding out something about you and using that against you?
Is what some kids might say or somebody with a bit more inellect might say to make you cower?

I don't really know, it's not like knowledge of your full name puts you at danger, unless maybe your a kid or something. My name is David Jenkins Jr. Pretty common.
