On LinkedIn, add another name ppl can search...? - DuraMatter - 06-24-2014 06:31 AM
In addition to my full name which appears on legal documents, resume etc, I also use a nickname.
My full name is on LinkedIn, but ppl also know me by my nickname. Is there any way to add another name as a search term so that ppl looking up my nickname can also find my profile? I want to do this without having to add to my visible full name on my profile.

On your LinkedIn profile, just below your name, and above your city, there's a field I call your "headline". Many people put things like "experienced investment professional...". You could put your other name in there.
Or you could put it in your name like John (Jack Rabbit) Smith ...

I agree with the poster above me. Something like this.
Full name: Richard Jones
Headline: Dick Jones is a dedicated employee with 15 years of experience in the Medical Supply industry.
