Oh my - good point about anonymity! I was feeling a little too bold earlier to be using my full name... I may rethink that as my writing becomes more personal.

Ah! I'd just tweeted asking for Twitter magic to find a replacment - but I've deleted instantly as the link has your name in it!
Do you want me to remove your last name from the story archive listing for it?
I quite understand the need to get used to having your words on the web - several contributors don't give last names (yet/ever) for that reason: it's enough for them to get used to seeing their words presented in a public place at a little distance from them. They often - as you did - see their words in new ways too once they're published. This is true of all writers - however hard I proof read, I only ever see some errors the minute it goes to my editor!
I can't undertake to make lots of editorial changes for style post submission because of the volume of pieces I edit and publish: I can only make change if a big misspelling or formatting problem is spotted...
But I can change your name straight away. On this platform it doesn't get indexed on search engines, and most subscribers don't read all the subcomments on threads...
Oh no, that's absolutely fine! I think I want to do it this way. I just hadn't really considered it. I have now, and please do send that tweet out onto the world. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to waste your time. Thank you!

And that's such great insight, about proofreading and missing things. Thank you again.
