Less than and greater than signs.

 All this talk about signing has spurred me to set it up on my email.  I am 
 having a problem however.
 
 I am using gpg (GnuPG) 1.0.6.  As instructed by the KMail help file, I am 
 running the command "gpg --gen-key" on the command line to create my keys.  I 
 have gone down through the list of questions until it asks for my "Real name"  
 Here is what happened:
 
 <paste from console>
 You need a User-ID to identify your key; the software constructs the user id
 from Real Name, Comment and Email Address in this form:
     "Heinrich Heine (Der Dichter) <heinrichh@duesseldorf.de>"
 
 Real name: Alan Dayley <alandd@consultpros.com>
 Invalid character in name
 Real name: Alan Dayley <alandd@consultpros.com>
 Invalid character in name
 Real name: Alan Dayley (Alan) <alandd@consultpros.com>
 Invalid character in name
 Real name: "Alan Dayley <alandd@consultpros.com>"
 Invalid character in name
 Real name:
 </paste from console>
 
 So here I sit wondering what character is invalid in the 4 attempts above and 
 how do I proceed from here.  Any hints?
 
 Alan
