Use a different name on YouTube than your Google Account

If you want to use a name or photo on YouTube that's different from what you have for your Google Account, connect your channel to a Brand Account. You can do this to support your business or brand identity on YouTube without showing a connection with your personal Google Account.

When you connect a YouTube channel to a Brand Account:

• Your Google Account is an owner/manager of the Brand Account connected with the YouTube channel. This lets you access the YouTube channel from your Google Account.
• There's no public association between your Google Account and the Brand Account, so viewers won't see your name or email address (unless you publicly link them yourself).
• You can manage multiple channels from one Google Account. This helps if you have more than one YouTube channel.
• You can add other managers and owners to your Brand Account. You and any teammates or collaborators can manage the channel without having to share passwords. Learn more about managing channels connected to Brand Accounts.
