Hi there,
We only need your name for orders placed through www.jrpass.com, your passport & visa will be validated in Japan upon exchanging the pass.
If you are a Japanese passport holder, then you will also need to prove that you have been living outside of Japan for 10 years upon activating the pass.
Kind regards,
Daniel
