The reason for aliases, in my view, is to have multiple known ways to refer to the same topic. And that's important. If the players should not know they are the same topic by revealing ONE name, then the two should not be the same topic.

If the fact that "Finn Sawdust" and the "Midnight Crawler" is a fact to be revealed during the game, then they should be two topics as described above, with the relationship connecting them revealed at the appropriate time.

If "Finn Sawdust" is also "Finny S" and "Fine Finn", but they're just nicknames for the same person, then they should be the same topic and the aliases revealed as they are learned in the game.
