One reason why I believe it won't matter is such: Companies require a real name. Most require social profiles or a website. If you refuse to give your real name and supporting materials, you will be passed over.

Of course you don't submit an anonymous résumé; companies handle this. HR departments can have specific people outside the selection process hold the table matching candidates' realnames and candidate ID #.
I've never heard of a company that requires a social network profile or website.

Technically, they don't even need a name or any other personal info until they're ready to make an offer.
