Lewis Capaldi Uses the Funniest Pseudonym for Songwriting Credits

Lewis Capaldi writes the most depressing songs, but has a superior humor! A fan on TikTok noticed that Never Really Loved Me by Kygo featuring Dean Lewis didn't have Lewis Capaldi's name in the credits... instead there was 'Anita Jobby' - aka "I need a poo" (Jobby is Scottish slang for poo lol)

But 'Anita Jobby' isn't the only pseudonym that Lewis Capaldi uses! Upon research, I found an article from 2019 that states: He (Capaldi) was met by two drivers with screens showing the names given to them by the singer. But the names Mr. Capaldi had chosen were 'Anita Jobby’ and ‘Sooka Phatwan’.

A lot of musicians write for other singers, and when they don't use their real name it's called a pseudonym. Even Joe Alwyn uses the fake name "William Bowery" in his writing credit for Taylor Swift. However, I can't imagine why an artist wouldn't want proper credit for their work!
