TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus is that PayPal statements are not accepted for visa applications in Thailand since they do not represent a traditional bank account. It's recommended to use a personal bank account statement instead, which should be in your name. However, the acceptance can depend on the specific embassy and the reason for your visa application.

Depends like most other things DTV which embassy you apply at and which reason you have for applying

Not accepted as PayPal is not a bank. They only accept real personal bank accounts and should be in your name.
