Anonymous asked: do Arthur and Mesi have surnames?
Do you know I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned them before now, which is a bit surprising, but yes! Arthur’s full name is Arthur Eric Steed, whereas Mesi’s full name is Mesi Jalloh.
Arthur has always found his name very pretentious, which is why the name he became known by was simply his first; he almost never had the surname put on the credits of his films, which was eccentric enough to draw attention and publicize the idea. ‘Ms Mesi Jalloh’ is how Mesi preferred to be titled in reviews/public addressal (and it’s pretty catchy so the press liked it too), which earned her the nickname ‘Ms Mesi’.
