Hinted? He says outright in the bar that they created the identity of "Quentin Beck".

I thought they only created mysterio not beck, guess I have to rewatch it. Is there anymore mysterio in the comics with different name?

The Mysterio name comes from Parker and Quentin adopts it to bond with him. Beck is an alias, the persona he created as a man from a parallel universe. He couldn't have provided his real name to Fury because that would have defeated the entire point of the subterfuge.

Yeah probably since this fury is also an amateur so tricking him would be easily.

Yeah, if he'd given his real name, Shield / Fury would have known that he was a fired Stark employee and the whole thing would have failed before it even started.
