Did Edgar Allan Poe have an alias?

Answer 1

He only used a fake name when he enlisted into the army as "Edgar A. Perry". This was because he had a large amount of unpaid gambling debts, and he was asked to be arrested. So, he used a different name to avoid this, then left the state of Virginia with the army.

Answer 2

Poe did not have an alias per se. He used a pseudonym in his early writing years of Henri Le Rennet but only for a short while. He joined the US Army under the false name of Edgar A. Perry, but dropped that after being discharged. He also used the name Edgar A. Poe.

Answer 3

Early in his writing career, Poe used the pseudonym Henri Le Rennet.

Answer 4

Yes, Edgar Allan Poe did have an alias. He sometimes used the pseudonym "Henri Le Rennet" while submitting his work for publication.
