Seuss was Theodor Geisel's middle name, and also his mother's maiden name (Henrietta Seuss Geisel). Geisel drew Cartoons for the newspaper while attending Dartmouth College, and always signed them "Seuss." Some of his other pseudonyms were Theo LeSieg, Rosetta Stone and Theophrastus Seuss.

Theodor Geisel adopted the pen name "Dr. Seuss" during his college years. "Seuss" was his mother's maiden name and he added "Dr." because his father had wanted him to become a doctor.
