Also known as alias, assumed name, fake name, fictitious name, nom de guerre
A pseudonym (; ) or alias () is a fictitious name that a person assumes for a particular purpose, which differs from their original or true name (orthonym). This also differs from a new name that entirely or legally replaces an individual's own. Many pseudonym holders use them because they wish to remain anonymous and maintain privacy, though this may be difficult to achieve as a result of legal issues.
A pseudonym is a made-up name that someone uses for a specific reason instead of their real name, while keeping their actual identity separate. People often adopt pseudonyms because they want privacy and to remain anonymous, though legal complications can sometimes make this difficult to maintain.
