In the US at least, it is a 14th amendment right that you may conduct business using any name "at will", meaning any name at any time. Since the supreme court spoke on that point, several exceptions have come to light: a) no intent to defraud b) no copyright violation c) no profanity.

As a general rule (again, in the US) you have the right to go by any name at any time for any (legal) purpose, and it is as legal as anything else you have ever gone by.

Can you use pseudonyms on a nondisclosure agreement?

From another answer: In the US at least, it is a 14th amendment right that you may conduct business using any name at will, meaning any name at any time. Yet this statement agrees with this proviso: The US has no laws on this, aside from requiring that you use your legal name on legal documents. Being a contract; an NDA is a legal document, so it must be illegal to use pseudonyms on an NDA? Right?
