In my opinion, it's not really that big of deal telling someone your name, but you should never give your address out or anything.

I agree with Shane.. There are probably hundreds or even thousands of people in the world with the same first and last name as you, so you probably shouldn't worry about who knows your name.

Yeah Never give out your address thats what I say or any type of personal details.
I think it's always better to have a nickname but it's no big deal giving out your real name as AC said:

Did this person on the news give out any other detail such as home address?
