I have no problem with an author who writes in, say, two different genres, using a different name for the two genres. Many authors do that - eg Agatha Christie also wrote romance novels under the name "Mary Westmacott", and that makes sense, since someone who bought something by an author they knew as a crime writer might be disappointed to find they'd got romance and not murder.
That's rather different, though, from using a different name for every book, which I thought was what you were suggesting?
