that sounds like petty fidonet bullshit.
The rule is you use a real sounding name.
My real last name is so long it wont fit into a field on a bbs, or it
would just be annoying, so i don't use it.  also real names are nobody's
business unless  you are doing business with them as far as i'm concerned.
