Registering a fictitious name is valuable for corporations. The corporation may always use its name. If, however, the corporation wishes to use any name other than its name, it must file a fictitious name. One advantage of registering a fictitious name is that you can obtain a Federal Identification Number for the fictitious name to enable you to open a bank account for the business under that name.
