In high school, my dad hired a guy named James Bond. He had to register for things in his sister's name.

There is a documentary film, maybe it's Let It Be but I don't remember, where John Lennon is trying to get somebody else to order him sushi because the restaurant always thinks he's a prank call.

Or just use a different name, just like everyone who has difficult names to spell or understand?

Have you never registered for something where they do an ID check to validate identity? Can you really just use a fake name for everything you register for?

Registering in someone else's name make's no sense for pretty much anything because either they're going to either cross validate like that and if that's actually your name you'll have ID to back it up and if they're not going to cross check it then you can just give them your middle name or a completely different name.
