page name?

I don't actually think that Helen ever goes by the alias "Helenish"--it's the domain/LJ name, but not her own. Was this page titled this way with an eye to disambiguation (other Helens in fandom)?

Well, there is a Helen Cutter on Primeval (BBC), so that's one fan writer and one character, though no one has started the Primeval page yet. --rache 00:19, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
I'm sure there are many Helens in fandom, and the name "Helenish" is instantly recognizable, so it seems like a good idea to keep it unless she objetcts. --Msilverstar 00:56, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
An interesting solution was proposed over at Talk:Petra. Rename to Helen (Helenish)?--æthel 15:51, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
I like that idea for both situations. She never refers to herself on her fiction as anything but Helen, so that should be the primary page name.--facetofcathy 17:26, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Is this the same fan?

Is Helenish the same fan as Helens78 in this interview: Slashcast Insider Interview with Helens78? --MPH (talk) 21:13, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

I don't think so? They have similar fandoms but non-overlapping web presences. Espresso Addict (talk) 21:30, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
Nope. User:Helens78--aethel (talk) 20:37, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
