can you use real names when writing an autobiography?

I beleive you can as long as there is nothing within it that could constitute slander or libel or be classified as an inflammatory comment.

Aliases could be used as substitutes for real names in order to evade cases of libel, defamation or other offenses.

An autobiography is a book/wriing about yourself.  It's usually the full story of one's life.  A good example of this is Bill Clinton's "My Life" where he wrote abt his life.\n\nFor your assignment, you only have 1 choice - write about yourself.  But, what you choose to include is up to you.

I think past is past. Don't care too much. \n\nHe has lived with his current name all the time. Just live with that, don't ever change it even though it's not his true name. You will get more trouble if you do that.\n\nLike others said, it's just a name, nothing important behind.

"and your last name?"

It depends on the context and what the topic of the writing is about.  For example, if you want to use the person as a credible source, including the degrees, especially the first time, is a good idea.  However, if you are writing a story about that person's family, it's probably not necessary.  If you add detail about what you are writing, maybe we can give you a more specific answer.

autobiography means something about yourself\nage,children and work are all important because its something to do with your life.\nyou could also tell some exiting experiences that happened in your life.Things you like,dislike etc or maybe some adventures or memorys that willstill never fade away.but if you dont want people to know about it then dont write it there.That would make your autobiography a lot more interesting.\nIf its a speech then I would suugest you make only the things you feel are important and that will sound interesting.\nyou be the judge on that.\nWhen I had to tell my autobiography in speech form,I made it as short as possible with only the details I found important.\n!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES!!! You do not want to have a fake name like BIG SHOW, Test,King Booker,or Finlay. So Take my advice and use your real name.

No; but when you edit, you can make reference to that person's name, so people know which other answer you're referring to...

So far the only version you can do it on is the BETA version, called AIM Triton.  When log on for the first time with this version, it will ask you to set up an address book.  In order to get names, you have to go through the motions.  When the initial setup is complete, you can create address book entries for all of your buddies, in which you can enter their real names.  Only then will you be able to see names on IMs instead of screennames.

You could mention a funny rhyming word for one of your names, or a interesting/famous person who shares your first or last name. Do you have a unique hobby? (Hot-air balloon pilot on the weekends?)  Or could you mime your name?

A friend of mine met a guy and give him a fake name.  They dated for a couple months before she worked up the courage to tell him she'd lied to him about her name.  But since that's what he'd always called her, he still calls her that today and they've been married for almost 5 years!!  So unless you want to be called by another name for the rest of your life, you might want to go by your real name!!

You mean, can you use it to be refered to in documents, etc? Yes, so long as it is on your birth certificate and other documentation. When filling out official forms, legal forms, government forms, etc you must use your name as it is legally on the birth certificate and then specify that you go by your middle name instead of your first. Many people do this. I have several family members that do this.
