I was using a psuedonym once and had a Japanese national ask me if I was also, I of course didn't lie about my nationality. But bragarty aside if anyone needs a few suggestions for a familial name feel free to pop a sound you like and I'll make up a handful of decent sounding names you can choose from if you like.
