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