Google started verifying the names on Google plus


Just like twitter, the original personalities, celebrities and public figures are verified, Google +, too rolled out a new verification badge program on 20th august 2011, making it to celebrities, public figures and those who have amassed vast numbers of people in their circles. Google verifies their identities with a check mark and a small banner that rolls out next to their names."verified name"


According to a Google+ post from Google+ team member +Wen-Ai Yu, “We’re working on expanding this to more folks.” she though doesn’t describe exactly how these verifications work?

The program, along with Google‘s insistence that user accounts be opened under a real name, aims to assure people that “the person you’re adding to a circle is really who they claim to be.”
