Gaylord Fields:

@Joe B: That's a gray area, as I'm sure many people referred to him as Richard (I may have myself when they played on my show during one record fair).

Joe B:

i'll accept No as an answer for richard and the young lions, as well as Herman and the Hermits!

Gaylord Fields:

@Paul: Pseudonyms should be a disqualifier, i.e., does that person answer to that name if called it? For your examples, they most certainly do.
