Welcome David,

It isn't necessary for you to use your last name or even your real name if you don't want to -its entirely up to you.

As far as learning about Buddhism and officially becoming a 'Buddhist' is concerned, we start wherever we are at the time and hopefully progress from there, so don't worry too much, do your best.

Its not necessary to commit straight away, take your time and learn more first.

This MP3 with accompanying transcript "What is Buddhism" might be helpful for clarification.

with kind wishes,

Aloka-D

I'm going to move this thread to the Buddhism for Beginners forum which is a more appropriate place for it.
