Technically no, as we can use a legally filed DBA.

Brokerage name must be present.

DRE# required on all advertising.

I use my first and last name and my dba. I echo Thomas' comment ... we are also required to provide our DRE# 

No one ever asked me if it's a requirement but I would imagine it would be. Also it would be hard if I just used my first name only. How many Bobs do you know, but how many Betel's are out there? It just makes life easier

Since I'm in Florida, the answer is "yes"!

Full name plus brokerage affiliation.

We have to use our full names as it appears on drivers license!

Honestly, I have no idea.  It's not something I've ever looked into, nor have I ever thought of advertising by anything other than my first & last name and my company name.  There is also a benefit to the fact that my last name is the first part of the company name, so using both my first and last in advertising I think gives me a better position than "Joe Smith with Acme Real Estate".  "Ryan Huggins with Huggins Homes" says that it's my company without me having to say it.

I cannot recall in 30+ years of this, ever seeing an advertisement with just a first name.  I have seen agents using their maiden names after getting married during their real estate carreer due to existing branding and recognition, but never seen "Bob the Realtor" as an advertisement.

No we don't but do have to have the agency you work for with their phone number.

In Louisiana, we can have a DBA but I have never seen one with a single name. 

Greetings from Tallahassee, the Capital of Florida.  The answer is of course, "Yes!"

In our state (VA) if you have a DBA registered with the licensing authority, you can use that.  Not sure if they accept first names only in the like of Madonna, Cher, etc.

I know we have to use the name of our brokerage. As for our own names, actually never thought about it as I always use my full name.

You have to use the name on your license as well as list the brokerage you work under here in NH

Yes; and must use legal first name. 

if it's on your license you put in your advertising.

whatever is on your license.

Don't know but you would think since it is mandatory to include your license number they could trace anything back to a source. Advertising is expensive

I like it, I like it!  I don't know if Illinois requires my last name, or not.  I know that they do allow you to use a DBA, but not sure if that applies.

With that information, and the states professional licensing website, any pervert can find an agents home address.  Using a DBA is how and agent can PROTECT themselves.

Seems some teams, mainly with one franchise, believe themselves exempt from the name requirement and the requirement the BROKER must be equally predominate on the signage. Apparently, here in FLORIDA, is more about what you can get away with, all these years, and not the letter of the requirement.

In Md you do and also need an office phone # which can reach the Broker

We're small, rural, friendly and personal. But not on a first name only basis yet in Maine Karen Climer 

Yes.
