Software copyrights - can i use screen name instead of real name?
<p>I'm trying to use my screen name (say "Cyfrost") instead of my real name (say "Billy Raymond") for a copyright notice inside my software, by doing so, I'm hoping to achieve credit to my work.</p>

<p>Here's a better illustration of what I'm trying to achieve:</p>

<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/h0oLr.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/h0oLr.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>

<p>and not this: (assuming my real name is Billy Raymond)</p>

<p><strong>Can i use my screen name in the Copyright notice label instead of my real name?</strong></p>

<p>I'm relatively new here, so please suggest any corrections.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>My software will be closed source, but always freely available on the internet.</p></li>
<li><p>For legal jurisdiction, I live in India and I do not plan on Registering copyrights for these software.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Yes, you can use a pen name in a copyright notice.</p>
