I totally agree with you Chris. However, I think the issue here is not whether or not we
should have a name field, but rather the fact that I have access to the names which
jeopardises the concept of privacy and the possibility of participants not opening up.

Greetings,
the name field is quite an important part of this survey so as to
prevent individuals from participating more than once since we
currently lack a way of preventing such. However, these names
shouldn't be revealed to anyone after the survey or when the results
are being released. It is an important ethical rule when conducting a
survey to protect the information given by your respondents. In case
the team requires extra information regarding the survey i.e data
analysis or interpretation, all be more than glad to help. Happy
Easter to all.

thought it was important to
prevent one from participating twice.
I also don't mind it open. Do you guys want it open, or should I remove the
name field totally?

Then I think the whole idea of privacy doesn't make sense if this is the
case.
Personally I'd prefer if the whole thing was made open including the names
but if guys aren't comfortable with this, the name field should be
removed.

For privacy reasons, I will not mention any names when displaying the
results.
Are you able to see the names of the survey participators yourself?
