Why did Charles Lutwidge Dodgson write under the pen name Lewis Carroll?
It seems that Dodgson was very keen to keep his fictional work separate from his real and professional life. He never publicly acknowledged that he was also Lewis Carroll and even went to the lengths of printing a message to send to people who wrote to him as Lewis Carroll saying, "He neither claims or acknowledges any connection with any pseudonym, or with any book that is not published under his own name."source: Rackin, D., Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. Nonsense, Sense and MeaningHis pen-name was chosen by Edmund Yates, the editor of a magazine to which Dodgson had submitted a poem:Dodgson first used 'B.B.' to sign his non-professional writings, but in March 1856, when he wanted to publish his poem 'Solitude' in the magazine "The Train", Edmund Yates, a magazine editor, thought that this one was not appropriate. Then Dodgson came up with 'Dares' (from Daresbury in Cheshire, his birthplace), but that one was also rejected. Finally he invented Edgar Cuthwellis (composed from the letters of his name), Edgar U.C. Westhill (idem), Louis Carroll...and Lewis Carroll (idem). Yates chose the last one.source: Lenny's Alice in wonderland Site (see Related Link)The name Lewis Carroll was created by Dodgson Latinising his first two names, and then Anglicising them again.Lutwidge = Ludovic = LewisCharles = Carolus = CarrollWe know that there is no connection between Dodgson's pen-name and Alice Liddell because 'Solitude' was published under the name Lewis Carroll in March 1856, and he did not meet Alice Liddell until April of the same year.
Why was Lewis Carroll not ordained a priest?

He struggled with theological studies and did not pass the necessary exams for ordination. Additionally, his unorthodox beliefs and unconventional lifestyle may have raised concerns among church officials.
Why did Lewis Carroll go by his pen name?
Because he thought people reading his books on mathematics would find it odd that the same author name would appear on the cover of a children's fiction literature book. So he decided to kind of change or re-translate his name into a pen name to make the difference in the style of the books obvious and noticeable.

Is the Mad Hatter a bad guy in Alice in Wonderland?
Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland doesn't have a villain. The plot is episodic - Alice moves through a series of essentially unconnected events - there is no one antagonist against whom she must struggle, or who she must defeat. She meets some moderately unpleasant people on her adventures, the Queen of Hearts being the most noticeable The Queen of Hearts is the nearest that the book has to a villain, as she is a key actor in the climactic scene at the trial, where her order to execute Alice is one of the main causes of Alice's rebellion and the chaos and eventual resolution that her rebellion brings about.
