I would 100% go with a pen name if you have family that would be offended by what you write. I use a pen name myself.

How I chose my name (this is a bit like those porn star name generators):

First name: a variant on my real, rare first name (it sounds like it, but isn't spelled like it, to foil any googlefu)
Middle initial: from my religious name that was given to me as a kid, which I don't often use, and hardly anyone knows about
Last name: the first name of a recurring character from one of my favourite writers.
