The request can be extended to S-Users : cf. https://sap.userecho.com/topics/175-company-name/

I think about 2 main motivations for interacting on SCN (and SAP-related sites in general) :

- Building a kind of personal brand (it worked for me for Matthew Billingham, Paul Hardy, Naimesh Patel, Uwe Goehring just to name a few)

- Getting information (questions, forum)

I foresee a near future where people (potential bosses, customers, key user) will google our names to retrieve questions answered (much more than now) (*).

I am totally ok with no-knowing stuff and I value a lot the people's ability to say they don't know *but* everything needs to be in context.

To put it another way, I would not be comfortable with associating my name (less my company name - cf. https://sap.userecho.com/topics/175-company-name/ ) with the naive questions I asked online when I started, and I am not willing to bet what future-me (and future others) will think about what I might say today.

All in all, my feature request is :

- As a SCN user logged with a S-user, I can use a pseudo or my real name for interactions on SCN.

because :

- Pseudo do not stop you from creating quality interaction (ex : stackoverflow)

- Pseudo do not stop you from being recognised as a source of expertise ("Craig" on sapfans.com who was the QM-expert on the field).

- Imposing real names force you to overthink what you write (why shall I be less cautious about a message that will stay on the internet forever than making a public speech at a professional convention?)

(*) as a matter of fact, I have once read an "How to select the right consultant" HR-like blog that was advising : be carefull of people who ask a lot of questions because it might be better to hire someone who knows instead of someone who send time asking on forum.
