Is there any way of recognizing whether if someone you know has multiple persona?

Multiple personality disorder is now called Dissociative identity disorder.  There is much controversy on this disorder, with many people beleiving it doesn't exist at all.  If you want more information you can check out the DSM.  \n\nFor a quick overveiw of symptoms:\n\nPatients exhibit a remarkable array of symptoms that can resemble other neurologic and psychiatric disorders, such as anxiety disorders, personality disorders, schizophrenic and mood psychoses, and seizure disorders. Symptoms of this particular disorder can sometimes include:\n\ndepression \nanxiety (sweating, rapid pulse, palpitations) \nphobias \npanic attacks \nphysical symptoms (severe headaches or other bodily pain) \nfluctuating levels of function, from highly effective to disabled \ntime distortions, time lapse, and amnesia \nsexual dysfunction \neating disorders \nsleeping disorders (insomnia, sleepwalking, night terrors) \nposttraumatic stress \nsuicidal preoccupations and attempts \nepisodes of self-mutilation \npsychoactive substance abuse[4] \nSigns of DID include:\n\ndiscussion of self in 3rd person \nnever feeling alone \ntalk of looking through others' eyes \ntalk of being half in and half out of their body \nsays "we" when talking about themselves \nabused as a child-87% (physically, mentally or verbally) \nOther symptoms include: Depersonalization, which refers to feeling unreal, removed from one's self, and detached from one's physical and mental processes. The patient feels like an observer of his life and may actually see himself as if he were watching a movie. Derealization refers to experiencing familiar persons and surroundings as if they were unfamiliar and strange or unreal.\n\nAgain, doctors must be careful not to assume that a client has MPD or DID simply because they present with some or all of these symptoms. Another factor in the diagnosis is that all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares idea, which is to say that although many of these symptoms may be present in an individual, he or she may not necessarily have DID. For example, someone may have severe PTSD (one symptom) and self mutilate with suicidal ideas, which is 3 of the above symptoms, but will not have DID. In order for DID to be diagnosed, there must be two or more distinctly present personalities.\n\nPersons with dissociative identity disorder are often told of things they have done but do not remember and of notable changes in their behavior. They may discover objects, productions, or handwriting that they cannot account for or recognize; they may refer to themselves in the first person plural (we) or in the third person (he, she, they); and they may have amnesia for events that occurred between their mid-childhood and early adolescence. Amnesia for earlier events is normal and widespread.

DIssociative Identity Disorder, formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder is very hard to diagnose.  \nSome signs of it might be if the person in question "loses time".  Or finds new items such as clothing in their home that they can't remember buying.  \nChanges in handwriting or voice.  \n\nDissociation can range from very mild (such as driving somewhere as if you're on autopilot... you're there, but don't really remember driving)... to severe where there is a core identity and one or more alters.  Because the degree of dissociation can vary so much, it is very hard to say for sure if someone has a full-blown case of DID or a milder transient dissociative disorder.

You need to know a person's personality to give them a nick name, or a little more about them.

You cannot find the identity of a person online simply based on their email or web-profile on portals like yahoo because of the fact that any one can take any identity when they are online. \n\nHowever, you can find out if and only if that person discloses their true identity to you either via email or web-profile.

You do not know for sure, but they will always appear offline to you and you will never be able to see them online. Ask another friend who knows them to tell you if he/she sees them and then check to see if they are online.

If you know the day of the week they were born, you can work it out. Otherwise, try white pages to see if they are listed. Ask family. Look for birth/marriage certificate.

There maybe more than one person with the name but from my source have given you a page where search for the name is listed. I hope this will answer your question.

a- multiple personalities (true ones, not fakers) are a one in a million chance.\nb- since we dont understand the nature of a multiple (are they seperate spirits?  we know they have no knowledge of each other, and that even brain waves are different, but are they even the same person? [the body does not make the man, but the spirit]) this question cannot be answered by the human mind

Not sure that this is possible.  The only way to do this more than likely is to have a court order to release this information....and you're not going to get that info unless it's something awfully important like inheritance placement, or if they sign a release for a background check and even if they did that, they would probably have to provide their previous alias.  Not sure why you need this info....that would help also.   Sorry I couldn't be much more help

If they are invisible to everyone, No there is not a means to find out. If it is just to you, open their profile. It will say they are online if they are. Sometimes using the Member Directory Search will tell you, even if the Profile doesn't tell you.
