I tend to be a private person and mostly don't use my real name online. Is there a way to get my real name to not appear in a shared photostream? I'd like to be able to post it to my Twitter/etc. without everyone seeing my real name there!

I suppose I could change the name in appleid.apple.com, but worry that this may cause problems in the future, with credit card billing and whatnot.
 
I would love to do this myself. Per my previous message, I see myself using publicly shared Photo Streams in the future instead of Photo Journals because the shared streams are free while Photo Journals count against our iCloud storage. I have created my own index page to my shared Streams that seems to work fine.
