It should be registered with the state...IMHO it's not a fictitious name, it's a legal name. I'm also not sure that the title of the account needs to include the person's name, our single member LLC was in just that...the businesses name.
Ah, I found an exception. If the solemember elects to use his SSN instead of an EIN, would be titled as you suggest.
Actually, the listing I'm looking at lists it in this manner:
John Doe, Doe's Auto Parts, LLC. Sole proprietorships list the way you have shown above.
