Why?

Ashenden: Or the British Agent is a 1927 collection of loosely linked stories by W. Somerset Maugham.

Это-то понятно, но фамилия реальная, например:

Gavin Roy Pelham Ashenden (born 3 June 1954) is a British Catholic layman, author and commentator, and Associate Editor of the Catholic Herald... Ashenden was born on 3 June 1954 in London, England, the son of Michael Roy Edward Ashenden and Carol Ashenden (née Simpson, now Salmon).[2] He was educated at Rokeby Preparatory School and as a music scholar at The King's School, Canterbury, etc. (Wiki)
