I would simply lie. I don't go by the name on my ID, so they could take my ID and search all they want for me online, they will never find it. To be clear- I've never been called by my real name from the day I was born. I was named after a relative out of respect, but my mom and dad wanted to call me a different name, so that's the name they always used and the name everybody calls me.
In addition, while it's illegal to lie to an "official", I don't have enough respect for them or the law to care.
That is true. I've paid the price for my, as my first grade teacher so aptly put it, "Lack of Respect for Authority". I tried to tell them then, and I will tell you now: It's not that I don't respect authority, I simply do not recognize authority. The concept, as I write it, just seems so weird that people think they have some Divine Right to tell other people what to do.
Edit- With that said, I'm always open to suggestion and conversation.

Whether or not you have respect for them or the law, if they catch you lying to them they'll make you regret it.
