use github for oauth not as my personal profile

i'm working on an app where github is the authentication measure. currently i have it working, but i feel like when signing up, people might be hesitant to login when oauth prompts the user with allow <my name> to do x y and z with your account, or whatever the message is. i'm just wondering how people generally do this- new github account? or is there a way around this? (this question also sort of applies for other oauth providers as im planning on adding more than just github, eventually probably even revoking github)

i thought that's what i did in the initial authorization, it shows Application by <My GH Name> wants to access your <gh username> account

Right, but the screen in question isn’t that screen, it’s the next one after you sign in Nonetheless, I’ll check out adding an org At least on the initial authentication
