Not unless you want to count James Joyce.

#ScribesAndMakers 14.2
Speaking of sharing names, I was originally planning to write fiction under the pen name of Ellen Fremedon, which is, as I'm certain you all know, line 3b of Beowulf in Old English.
But it turns out there is more than person with that name already publishing books. Who would have thought there were that many Beowulf fans who wrote?

To my fellow Anglo-Saxon buffs, I shall now show myself out. 😆
