32A.Persons using pseudonyms

all the works by a person appear under one pseudonym, choose the
pseudonym. Make a reference (see rule
63A) from the real name if you
know it.

pseudonym, choose that pseudonym. Make reference from the names of
the collaborators if they are known.

pseudonym.
If a person uses more than one pseudonym or
his or her real name and one or more pseudonym(s) and if the
person has
-
either established separate bibliographic identities
(that is, has published groups of similar works under one name
and groups of similar works under one or more other names)
-
or is a contemporary author
choose, as the basis for the heading for each
work, the name found in the chief sources of information of
manifestations of that work. Make references (see rule
63B) to
connect the names.
If different names for such a person appear
in different editions of the same work or if two or more
names appear in the same edition, choose (in this order of
preference):
-
the name that has most frequently appeared in editions of the work
-
the name appearing in the latest edition of the work.
If a person using more than one pseudonym or his or her real name and one or more pseudonym(s):
neither has established separate bibliographic identities

choose the name by which that person has come to be identified in
later editions of manifestations of his or her works, in critical
works, and/or in reference source.
32B.
Persons not using pseudonyms
If a person, other than one using one or more
pseudonyms (see rule
32A),is known by more than one name
or more than one form of a name, choose the name or form
of name (if there is one) by which the person is clearly most
commonly known (see rule
31B).
Otherwise, choose (in this order of preference):
- the name that appears most frequently in
manifestations of the person's works
- the name that appears most frequently in
current reference sources
