    Default Making a Windows Live account

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    So basically I want to sign onto Windows Live as there is a game I have that requires it to play. What I want to know is whether or not I have to supply my real first and last name as you can see is required. Does anyone know if there are any implications if I use a fake first and surname?

    Do I need to supply my phone number and postal code? Are there any implications if I supply a fake postal code. Sorry these can't be seen in the pic.

    You don't need to but theres no reason not to. All the information won't be visible to others so if privacy is your concern, your name won't be circling the internet. You also will not be able to change it and it will be linked to your email, so if you try to make an Xbox Live or Windows Phone account with it later on in life, thats what you will be stuck with.

    Yes I believe it is, again though it is private and is most likely there so that if you decide to buy something from them your post code will be ready.
