I do believe that will be up to you :)  In many cases it isn't even possible to remain secret, because of the whole return address thing.

because of the whole return label giving it away to the receiver,  I think it would be more fun to let other people who the Secret Santa was for each receiver to see how well they think they know everyone?

If people were smart, it was just an address and no name.  In my case, I ordered something direct from retailer and had it shipped to beastypoo.  He just isn't showing all of what I sent him.

Yeah, but you have to get your name out there somehow, it's not like anyone saw any of the movies you've been in.

Most of them don't ship overseas.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
