Pseudonym

Part of Speech: Noun

Definition: a fictitious name

Source: Merrian-Webster

Found in: Choi Jeong Min (line 22)

Meaning in Context: ” Grace is not / her pseudonym, though everyone in my family is a poet.” This is saying grace is not a pen name that a poet or writer would usually use, it is her real name. But in reading the poem it is clear that it IS a fake name made by her mother to hide her  Korean origins.
