What could someone do with your full name (first middle and last)?

I wanna tell my subscribers on YouTube what my actual surname is, and possibly share my middle name too, but I don't know if someone could do something bad with my entire name. Also, if you do say what they can and can't do with it, please give sources from a trustful website (not Wikipedia).

Thank You!

    Have one of your names be made up. Better safe than sorry

    Like made up a surname or as first name or a middle in place of your real name. Yeah, lots of weirdo and lowlifes out there

    I don't think you should do that because you could risk yourself to have your identity stolen. Also there are a lot of weirdos out there and you probably don't want them facebook stalking you (if you have facebook). It is probably safer if you don't give out your real last name.
