Now, when Blizz receives a player report, many things get checked -- including account names. If the account names do not match, that's pretty much an insta-ban for account sharing.
What if you made accounts under a different first name but same last name? do they only check last name like when doing character transfers?

My first name is Abdalla which is what I used on my main account but my alts are under first name Ab which is what everyone calls me....dang now I'm worried :S
It's up to the GM. I know they've confirmed that if your name is "Robert" and you put "Rob" as your first name on the other account, there's usually no worry. However, if your first name was "Robert" and the other account's first name was "Susan" -- even if your last names matched, the GM isn't stupid.
