Is using your name a bad idea?

Whatever, I'm Getting Cheese Fries
Do you guys think that it can be a bad idea to use your full name as your youtube account? Could you potentially face work related problems? What do you guys think?
 
I've used my real name on the internet for like 5 years and have uploaded some pretty messed up stuff over that time, never faced a problem lol
 
It can look more professional but if you don't want people in real life to find you it's not the best idea. It's why i don't do it.
 
I don't like personally using my Full name even though my channel has my first name in it, though I think if you become popular it will not be good if people know your full name
 
Never had a single problem using my real name. I've been lucky that former co-workers haven't come up to me saying they saw me on youtube. :tongue:

(Although it's one of my dreams to have my former co-workers look in awe when they see me all famous on youtube being interviewed and stuff like that.. ha! :cool: )
 
Idk how I would feel if someone I knew came up to me lol. I think I might be embarrassed so I think ill change my youtube account name since I am doing this for fun and not really for people I know to see lol. that might be awkward :o
 
It depends on what you put online and if someone is really trying to look up your information. If a person is searching for your information then he or she needs to get a life. Be careful what you put online.
