Well. The answer to that is a little more complicated than you might think.
If I was going to have another name just in everyday life, it would be Philippa. To cut a long story short, that was going to be my name when I was born, but I got Nicole instead.
Being of a writerly persuasion, however, I've put some thought into what penname I'd use. Currently I think I would use Claire Cassidy. That's one of my middle names and my great-grandmother's maiden name.
