The name that represents your social media profile should just be your own name. Basically, it should be right for all, should it?

Your username is inserted in your URL on most social networks, and it’s usually different from your display name. Hardly, you change your username in your requiring, so pick it carefully.

The profile might be a logo that bears your company brand or your personal pic.
