Pseudonym
A pseudonym or allonym is a name, (sometimes legally adopted, sometimes purely fictitious), used by an individual as an alternative to their birth name.When used by authors, a pseudonym is also called a pen name or nom de plume. (This is an English expression: in France, such an alias is more commonly termed a nom de guerre).
When used by actors, performers, or models, a pseudonym is also called a stage name (or sometimes "screen name")
Famous pseudonyms of people who were neither authors nor actors include:
- Le Corbusier, the architect, was Charles Edouard Jeanneret.
- Alan Smithee is name used by directors who disown their own movie.
- Nicolas Bourbaki was a famous pseudonym for a group of mathematicians
- Student was William Sealey Gosset, discoverer of Student's t-distribution in statistics.
On the internet, pseudonymous remailers utilising cryptography can be used to achieve persisnent pseudonymity, so that two-way communication can be achieved, and reputations can be established without linking a physical identity to a pseudonym.
