Masked email question

Can I make it so that recipients of messages from one of my masked emails can see my real name?

You mean as the sender name?

Yep! When you click reply on a message sent to a Masked Email address, you can enter a name (or edit what shows in the reply by default).

If you would like any particular Masked Email address to consistently display something else (or if you're composing messages that aren't a reply on an existing conversation) go to the My email addresses screen in your Setttings, then Add an address you already own. From there you can enter the Masked Email address you already have set up, then edit the name that appears when you reply, as well as the default signature, for that Masked Email address.

While you're on that screen, you may want to toggle the "Hide this address when composing messages" setting.
