If the guy in England who changed his name legally to "Legoland Windsor" were
to sign up for Lugnet Membership, would he be allowed to post as Legoland
Windsor?

If he actively wanted to avoid confusion, and as such wanted to post using his
former name (which is now not his real name), would he be allowed to?

his name every time he posted?

I don't know why I was thinking about it, but I was.  Slow day at work, I
guess.
