Change your user name. Most people don't use their real name as their user name.

yes, I would recommend changing the username/name but even after that you may need to contact google/bing and ask them to remove it from their searches as they often store data there even after its deleted from the source.

Thanks,

I have changed the name, but I see the username have already been changed earlier as they say it can only be changed once.

I will contact google/ bing.

If you write support they will help you change it again.

You can't remove your profile. Best you can do is change your name and close your account. You could manually go through and remove content, but there isn't a way to do that easily.
