I saw a coffe table book of photos of cathedral gargoyles once.
The photographer was identified a "F-stop Fitzgerald".  Groan.

Occasionally one gets asked to write under a pseudonym (usually when one's 
written several articles for the same issue, and the editor doesn't want 
it to look like a benefit).
     
My favourite to date has been Armand d'Illot (say it quickly :-)), but the 
next time this happens in a non-photographic journal, I think I'll be 
Elmar Snooky. :-)
