Google Plus and Names

[whizzball1]

Google Plus can be disappointing sometimes. Apparently, my name is not a "valid" name. Jonathan Spirit. I don't see anything wrong with that name at all. Possibly, it looks at Spirit as a dictionary word and not a valid last name and so turns it down. I'm making an appeal. Anyone else have this issue?

Nope. I don't think google should be asking me to use my real name at all. I have an internet handle for a reason.

huh, my name on G+ is Vike Step i wonder why Jonathon Spirit didn't work.

if google was a hospital...

Father: I think we shall name him Johnny Spirit
Doctor: oooh, not sure about that one,
Father: Well can I call him vike?
Doctor: Why not??

Btw, I'm using this as one of the proofs that Jonathan Spirit is my actual name. I don't feel comfortable at all giving them birth certificates or other things like that.

NOOOO, dont do that! They might not let me keep my name!!

What do you mean? I directly linked them to this post. And also my profile on the No Topic Forums. If they scroll down they'll see my sig with my actual name on it. Problem solved.[DOUBLEPOST=1384665357][/DOUBLEPOST]

Speaking of names, what's your IGN? I need to add you as a beta user on the AT Launcher. You don't have to do any beta duties, it's just there for you.

1. Why could you not have just said, "my real name is Johnathon Spirit", I am perfectly sure that Google would accept that and not need proof on a forum that you created...
2. No, I told you that I was quitting AutoMagical. But I am sure you can take a stab at the dark and guess my IGN

You can't just put that there. You have to post links,
2. You son't have to do any beta testing things, I'm just giving you access to any and all future betas.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! They didn't accept my appeal! Seriously! What kind of thick-headed loonies look at my name and say, "That's not a real name" after I've very clearly stated that Jonathan Spirit is, in fact, my name? Rant over.

Google is not very intelligent

I really don't mind giving my real name to google, I do hate however not having the full option to prevent others from seeing my real name...
