Best Answer
  • If this is a personal story of your life and the persons in your story are deceased you can use their names, but, when writing a story about the people you know you should change their names and in the front of the book a clause can be put in 'this story is true; the names have been changed to protect the person's involved.' If one is writing about John F. Kennedy for example they can use real names, but must do their research well.
