Facebook alternate name help !?

[kate]

Alright so i just want to add the alternate name "private" to my facebook page because i have too many people attempting to add me however when i put that as the alternate name it gives me the error of "facebook requires to to use your real name "

i am just getting so frustrated! @any ideas anyone? Can you think of other synonyms or fixes? Thank u so much

there's no way around it

facebook knows the word private is not an actual name, so you cant use it

instead, just set up your account so that only people with mutual friends can send you a friend request
