Kik messenger username and name?

[Logan]

If I use kik..

Will people be able to see my name I put (IRL). If so, I found a way around it
My username - Say I have a social media accounts (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc.) as a certain name (5 letters one number).. I heard using usernames like that is bad?

Also how exactly does kik work with showing my name or username, or...? I can find hardly any of this basic info anywhere on their website.

The name and username are both showed on KIK but you can change the by going to your profile.
It will show Your name to the person you are messaging and your user name is how people will look you up. You can not look some one up with their name.
