as "Eugene" signs his name as just "Eugene" --but hey, we all know him and love him and know is last name!

It also usually creates a nicer tone for people not to talk about others' "peddl[ing]" their views (whether myths or otherwise) -- substantive arguments are of course entirely proper, but argument by pejorative term generally is not helpful, I think.
