Nope you cannot do that and please dont try to do it also. if the amount get rejected you will be charged with 5$. so please make a new account at paypal and make your name and surname clear. Regards

i don't think this will be any problem, us names are always lastname-firstname format, our is firstname-lastname format. just be sure individually they are entered ok, then won't be a problem anymore.

I had this name problem. My name was changed while I registered. Bank name and paypal name should be the same.So I registered a new paypal account with a different e-mail address. I am using this new account which matches with my bank account. If you are requesting the paypal there is possibility to correct the mistake.

if you already added your bank account and it is already confirmed, then you can go ahead and process the transaction, the name cannot be reversed just by a simple request, you need to submit a secured webform inside your paypal account to request a name change and they gonna ask a documents or proof for the correction of the name

I am also having the same problem with my Paypal account and the bank account name...With hesitations, I requested for the fund transfer to my bank account a month back.Fortunately,my fund got transferred into my bank account without any issue.Even if you have the mismatch in your name in Paypal and bank account, you can send the request to make changes in your paypal account and there are provisions for that.Hope you will also not face any problem in the fund transfer.
