No, no he's just working on US Pulp Magazines.  All pulp writers have 
traditional names.  He's not going to have any trouble.

Except, of course, with Daniel Keys Moran.  Who doesn't use his first name 
except when writing.  And Marion Zimmer Bradley, whose name should be sorted 
under 'Z'.  Though, of course, Edgar Rice Burroughs should be sorted under 'B'. 
 And Margaret St. Clair whose name is correctly pronounced and sorted as if it 
was Margaret Sinclair.

And Lester del Rey.  Whose name should be sorted under 'd' (his wife was 
Judy-Lynn del Rey).  And who normally claimed (falsely) that his name was Ramon 
Felipe San Juan Mario Silvio Enrico Smith Heartcourt-Brace Sierra y Alvarez del 
Rey y de los Uerdes.

Of course, the author Eando Binder was actually two people (Edward and Oscar 
Binder) but that doesn't count.

Simon.
