The practice of multiple naming began in 2001 as a by-product of physical displacement, and as an adaptive game in negotiating foreign cultural/linguistic contexts.

Names are not an alias, but rather a compounding of the original name, as such they are notated as follows:
Pia Fuchs deutsche Identität von Patricia Reed.
