'Georgina Spelvin' (qv) is the traditional theatrical pseudonym
used by actresses who wish to remain Anonymous. Its male equivalent
is 'George Spelvin' (qv). It is used in film, television, and
theatre much as 'Alan Smithee' (qv) is used as a mask for
directors. (There does appear to be a specific actress in the porn
industry who uses the name consistently.)
