Help! My real name is showing when I google my blog

I've started blogging under a pseudonym about a rare medical condition I have. When I google that condition my blog comes up - so far so good - but with my real name underneath.

I don't really understand why. I'm using blogger and the default email address is one I use for a fake FB account not my real email address (that does have my name).

I have no idea as im not that good with computers, didn't want you to go unanswered. I'll try though :)

Does your name come up as the author of the blog?
have you commented or wrote anything on it using your real name?

if you want I'll have a look and see If I can see it aswell? or if just you can I can think of no reason this would happen but I'm trying to help :)

What is your name set to in your profile in blogger?

If you go to your blog, then view the source (using your browser) can you find your name in the code? If so, then you need to work out when you entered it and try to remove it.

Check your Blogger Profile is not containing anything referring to your name. Make sure you have a DisplayName that is something but not your own name.

So confused!

On my blogger profile my username, email address linked to the blog, and display name are all the same (and a pseudonym). My real name isn't anywhere.

What about any account, like Google plus?
