I just had this little anecdote from Martin Severn (ex-Players):

Now there's a name I haven't heard for a while..good grief. I think the
reason was that he wasn't getting any fan mail (yes that's right we got fan
mail) so one drunken night down the pub we decided he should make up a sexy
name that people would want to write to. It kind of worked but most people
just wanted pictures of her.

Strange days.

There have been authors who have used the opposite sex as a pen name of

It was also because Shark was sort of a remake with Jabbas 'decent'

person...Not good..
