Psmith

One of the pre-eminent Wodehousean characters, Psmith can tolerate nothing commonplace or boring; which is, we suppose the main reason that he added the "P" to his name and immediately propelled himself into literary fame. That reminds me of the current trend of changing the spelling of given names just a little to make them unusual - and also to guarantee that they will be forever misspelled.
