Joining Facebook with anonymity?

Can i join facebook with an anonymous or fictitious name so I can only search for people I'm looking for BUT I want no one else to know or identify me?

FYI: I DO NOT WANT TO COMMUNICATE WITH PEOPLE ON THIS FORUM, especially because my daughter, my family and my friends who ARE on fb have 'friended' soooooo many other people and all those people have other connections who have 'friends' who can see each other and so on and so on .... you get my drift?!!!

Update:

Because of an answer from R. Hossain; maybe I should add that if I can join with anonymity, should I also go to or choose specific actions in my account or profile sections to add to this security?
