All depends on your bank whether it accepts mismatching deposits.

Etsy can see any real banking information behind that account number.

Try it. Transfer $1 to the account with the name deliberately wrong. If it goes through then you have a bank that doesn't verify names on electronic transfers.

Many banks don't check names, usually mainstream banks. Small banks, credit Unions and internet only banks usually do check.

Good advice given to you OP - make sure your brother knows you are using his bank account
