So, another update and hopefully the last until the change the policy.
My husband emailed the Google Plus Urgent Help Center and then a little while later I am able to use my account again... at least for now, I don't want to hold my breath about it. This whole thing was incredibly silly! I hope that this doesn't happen to everyone who's last name is also a common noun, vowel, or adjective.... anything that would be in an elementary school dictionary. >.<
Oh well, later interwebers

Google plus names policy
I don't understand why Google plus requires you to have your real name on your public profile. I could see them having your name privately but not broadcasted to the world D:
Today I log on to Google+ to be greeted by this.
Which pretty much says, give us your information or leave. It really sounded like a threat and had me wondering "What did I do?".Today I log on to Google+ to be greeted by this.

The funny part is that I am using my "real name" on G+! I wanted to eventually switch it to an alias, since I feel more at comfortable using the same internet names that I have been using for years.

I submitted an "appeal" and I also sent a picture that was a collage of like 8 different IDs and some mail and other crap that had my name on it! So I hope they enjoy that.
*END RANT*
