How would folks mark up an hCard for the singer Alvin Stardust, born

What's his passport look like?
Oddly enough, he's never sent it to me.
That would answer the given-name, family-name questions, and perhaps
even the additional-name and nickname questions.
And otherwise?
And otherwise, like this.
Start with what you know.
<p>singer Alvin Stardust, Bernard William Jewry, also known under the
stage name Shane Fenton.</p>
Markup what you can, like the persons name
<p class="vcard">singer Alvin Stardust,
<span class="fn">Bernard William Jewry</span>,
also known under the stage name Shane Fenton.</p>
Then you move on to nicknames
The cheatsheet on the wiki at
http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-cheatsheet says nicknames can match 0
or more times, and just to make sure, RFC2426 which defined the vCard
spec says about Nicknames:
Type value: One or more text values separated by a COMMA character
So if multiple nicknames are listed, they'll end up being comma separated.
<p class="vcard">singer
<span class="nickname">Alvin Stardust</span>,
<span class="fn">Bernard William Jewry</span>,
also known under the stage name
<span class="nickname">Shane Fenton</span>.</p>
And finally you can sprinkle other things, like his role and stagename
<p class="vcard">
<span class="role">singer</span>
<span class="nickname">Alvin Stardust</span>,
<span class="fn">Bernard William Jewry</span>,
also known under the
<span class="note">stage name
<span class="nickname">Shane Fenton</span>
</span>.</p>
