How should I make my steam account name?
or something in these lines... I had a title that fit so much better into what I am going to talk about, but I forgot it from last night.

What should I use as a steam account name? Should I use my profile name as the same as my account name?

And any other tips and suggestions?

If you can't think of anything for the account name just use your real name. Only you can see it, so it shouldn't be a problem

It's the fact that when I can put it on my own profile page where you can put your real name, have my profile on public, and people can see it. Then things get serious, since it can leave to security issues to your steam account if you have your real name as your steam account name.

I don't use that part of my profile cuz i don't need to, i mean if you want to, go ahead though. No one can steal your account by using your name, it's impossible unless both your email and password is your profile name and it has no numbers.

I just put your name in a word scrambler and picked one at random.

Also if you have mobile authenticator it's almost impossible for someone else to get in your account
