appelation

"Under the appelation of Roger Chillingworth, the reader will remember, was
hidden another name, which its former wearer had resolved should never more be
spoken."


Bantam Classic
Ch. 9 Pg. 107

I believe appelation is another word for pseudonym or pen name.

  1. According to http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/appellation it states that it is a noun that means an identifying name or title.

  2. Anyone know French? "Je m'appelle Chillingworth" . . .
