[Tex/LaTex] Remove name from moderncv footer

header-footermoderncv

The moderncv documentclass creates a footer on the résumé page without a name, yet adds it on the subsequent letter page. Is there a simple way to omit one's name in the footer altogether?

(It appears to me that it must be the \makecvtitle and \makelettertitle that trigger different footer styles)

MWE:

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,sans]{moderncv}
\moderncvstyle{casual}
\moderncvcolor{blue}
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[scale=0.75]{geometry}
\name{First name}{Last name}
\address{Address}{City}

\begin{document}
\makecvtitle

\clearpage
\recipient{Company}{Address\\City}
\date{Date}
\opening{Dear ...,}
\makelettertitle

Letter

\end{document}

Best Answer

There might be side-effects, but you could just reset your name at the beginning of the letter by setting \name{}{} to empty strings:

\clearpage
\name{}{}
\recipient{Company}{Address\\City}
\date{Date}
\opening{Dear ...,}

It worked in your MWE, but maybe there are problems in bigger documents.
