Yes you have that freedom, its just not easy to identify you if you don't use your real name.
Real names are in a way the state-slave name, but since we are so used to call other people (I am at least) by their name, it make most sense (again to me) to use a real name... so that it is possible to get to know people in different contexts and build relationships... I am personally not really cool with building relationship with the screen-name spunkmonkey732 ... but sure everyone can do as they like, as long as they follow the NAP.
Do you mind telling us, your reason for using a screen-name instead of your real name?
It's a sort of branding. You can already find me (Gabriel Scheare) on all the major social media platforms, where I chat more casually with friends, but here on Steemit, I decided to serve a specific purpose with this account. I have other accounts as well for other purposes.
Ok, in that case it make sense, I agree with you.
