A: Your inquiry is very confusing. You should try to order your thoughts and tell us more about what allegedly occurred, if you want meaningful answers to your questions.

If you were fingerprinted, it will not matter why name you gave vs. the name on your birth certificate. They'll figure out it's you. If you were not fingerprinted, perhaps they will not figure it out.

If you gave an incorrect name to the police or the court, you may be charged with several offenses for that act (falsification, fake ID if one was used, obstruction of official business, obstruction of justice, perjury, etc.). It is illegal to lie to the police and courts.

In a legal sense, there is no such thing as individual sovereignty. Sovereignty is the authority of a nation to govern itself. It is, by definition, a communal right. The police cannot help someone violate your sovereignty because you haven't got any.
