It is highly AGAINST using a family/friends name for this type of thing.
Can cause a lot of heartache down the road.

Yes, you can, just make sure you use the banks that are listed in the guide.

Another trick is to create a business DBA account for your bank and match that with the stealth's business name.

You don't need to set up business bank accounts for starters.

Paypal cannot see the real name on the bank account and the majority of UK banks allow the mismatching name.

As for prepaid card, it confirms the address on Paypal. It also can be used as a funding source ie to pay ebay fees or to buy stuff.

As above though, it is not a good idea to use friends / relatives info.

A random name at an address you have access to.

That's correct you would need to do that. The issue is easily overcome though.
