I’ll be answering if you can use real people’s name in fiction.

Can you use real people’s names in Fiction?

Using real people’s name in fiction can be legally hazardous. Keep these points in mind when deciding to use someone’s real name in fictional material:

• Read the fine print on publishing deals
• Take a college class on business and inquire on monetizing creative writing with the use of real names
• Don’t stress too much on being “in your lane” when it comes to creative writing.
