Hello,

I'm not sure if I'm in the right section, but... I wanted to know the following information:

How can I leave a review on Google without my first and last name showing up, likely linked to my Google account, but using a nickname?

Do I need to create another Gmail email address or create another user account on the existing email address?
Can someone explain it to me in detail?

Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Thank you for placing my request in the right category.
    I looked at the links you sent, but I can't find the expected answer.
    I don't want my first and last names to appear when I leave a review on Google; that’s currently what happens.
    How can I create a pseudonym like most people do?
    Thank you

      You need to change it directly through your account. It seems you cannot have both a first name and last name plus a username.

        Hello, I found this (below) by searching for "Google account" it's not very clear. I do understand that it's either a nickname or a name.
        Anyway, I'm going to give up on the nickname.
        Thank you

        "Your name
        On your Android phone or tablet, open the Settings application of your device, then Google, then Google Account.
        At the top of the screen, tap Personal info.
        Under "Profile," tap Name. You may need to sign in for this.
        Tap Edit.
        Enter your name, then tap OK.
        Additional information
        Name
        If you created your account more than two weeks ago, you can change your name up to three times in 90 days.

        If you created your account less than two weeks ago, you can change your name more often.

        Nickname
        If you have already created a nickname, it will be used if you haven't set any name. If you delete your nickname, you won't be able to create another one."
