How to Make Your Real Last Name Not Show on Facebook
While Facebook does not contain an option to not show your last name, you can change your last name to hide your identity. Previously, users could choose to put only their last name's initial, but as of the date of publication, Facebook now requires a full last name. One workaround for this is to change the last name to a middle name or a fake last name. This can be done through the "Account Settings" page on Facebook.
Sign into your Facebook account.
Click the drop-down menu at the top-right corner of the page, next to the "Home" button.
Select "Account Settings," then click "Name."
Change the name listed under "Last" to something else. You can also add your real first and last name to the "Alternate name" option and uncheck "Include this on my profile." This will make it so your name is displayed in your profile without your real last name but people can still search for you using your full name.
