My point was that while 'member [name]' and 'alias' are useful terms in an MVS environment they are without official warrant elsewhere.
The word 'pukka' has the usual Sanskrit==>Hindi==>British English etymology. It meant literally 'cooked' and now means legitimate or high-quality exemplar of. Cognates abound. In Farsi, for example, rare meat is described as 'na pochte', not cooked; and the American 'half-baked', used to describe some ideas and etymologies, may reflect semantic contamination from this source.
