Time Considered As A Helix of Semi-Precious Stones - List of Aliases

List of Aliases

All the aliases used by the narrator have the initials H.C.E., a reference to Finnegans Wake by James Joyce.

• Harold Clancy Everett (name given by the orphanage)
• Hank Culafroy Eckles (on the flight to Earth)
• Harmony C. Eventide (in New York)
• Harry Calamine Eldritch (a previous alias which Maud uses to address him)
• Harvey Cadwaliter-Erickson (invented by Hawk the Singer for the party, suggesting a connection with a wealthy family of tungsten magnates)
• Henrietta, Countess of Effingham (used in the diversion at the party)
• The Honorable Clement Effingham (used in the diversion at the party)
• Hector Calhoun Eisenhower (as he rises in the underworld on Triton, buying the ice cream bar)
• Hamlet Caliban Enobarbus (invented by Maud on their second encounter, when she recognizes him despite an elaborate disguise)
• Ho Chi Eng (his alias-to-be at the end of the story, when he is about to undertake another enterprise)

The steward at the ice cream bar also makes a joke about a shipment of contraband milk, coining the name Heist Cream Emperor. It is not appreciated.
