Once I started seeing stories of people with hyphens having trouble that was it for me. True or not, the idea that my LEGAL name wouldn't even be trouble-free long enough for me to add my voice to support pseuds...major fail, Google, major fail.

I made sure to leave a very detailed, and very polite but unhappy note in the feedback section when I deleted explaining that forcing people to adhere to a flawed concept of identity wasn't going to do anything but lose them users. Like it already has.

I've been keeping out of these discussions lest someone block me out of spite, but now I'm blocked, I can some out and say yes, that's the position I'm in with my tax name - I don't use the term 'legal name' because under UK law, any name I want to be known by *is* my legal name as long as there is no attempt to defraud.
