We have all seen them, the people who are so secretive and good at it, they could be hiding the world's most guarded secrets. Now admit it, you envy them, just a little. Well, fear not, this article has a few tricks which will make everyone be guessing if your name really is what you say it is.
Steps

Speak vaguely. When someone asks you a question, try to avoid. If you cannot avoid it, answer it, but do not give specific details. Then quickly change the subject.
-
Hide your expressions, and control your body language. These can say more than your actual words.Advertisement

It helps if you look like you are constantly pondering something. Not only does it radiate intellect, which is secretive in its own right, but it raises the question, "What are they thinking about?"
-
It also helps if you don't look at anything for very long. This makes you look nervous, which human nature naturally sees as hiding something.
-
Use a wide vocabulary.
-
Dress in a manner which does not show every detail about your personality. You should try plain, simply cut clothes.
-
Be seen writing in a journal. When someone notices, quickly put it away.
