You can use any name of your choosing, or your company name (if you have one), if you want or need to do that. You can also
submit patches <em>without a name</em>, if you want or need to do that (instructions are provided on this page). Also, read <a href='http://www.kalzumeus.com/2010/06/17/falsehoods-programmers-believe-about-names/'>this article</a>. Unfortunately, git appears to be stuck with these problems, when an author changes their name, and we don't have a concrete answer to it.
As far as we know, publishing your legal name isn't even required for copyright purposes; in fact, &quot;pen&quot; names are commonly used by literary authors (computer programs are literary works).
