You can use any name. You do not give out last names.
It is not anonymous though as those who are court ordered have to get a sheet of paper signed to prove they were there.
I knew one man named Dave who gave a different name every time he went to a meeting and only those of us who went every day and knew his real name were aware of this.
Actually the name Alcoholic Anonymous is very misleading and wrong. It should be God's Anonymous or religion anonymous, because it has nothing to do with alcohol.

#a million grew to become into humorous, even though it did no longer truly shop on with the subject be counted. i presumed #10 confirmed greater lyricism and that i enjoyed "incomplete like a play without narration". there have been some truly solid similes in that one. #10 gets my vote.

They only use first names. And it is a program of anonymity and trust- what is said there is supposed to stay there.

TO establish they actually have a problem an addiction , in front of people who could help them. I wish Ben Cousins would do that.

I know I never understood that. I had to go to meetings for a DUI for 18 months.

The first step towards their recovery is admitting they have a problem.
