What search terms would you use/where would you look to find out why the books of author Frank Cottrell Boyce?

are listed under C as in Cottrell Boyce, Frank? This puzzles me. I haven't seen this before. The name is not hyphenated and the person is male. It's not just on the books; he is referred to that way in most articles, also. I tried to research it but came up with nothing, only the usual biographies and book reviews, etc. No one seems compelled to explain about his surname. And now I am equally perplexed by the fact that I don't know how to locate this information.

Update:

I just found out a few days ago that Millions was a book, and I plan to read it. I love the movie; it is original and thought-provoking, and has some very funny lines as well.

    Hmmm, interesting question. I didn't find much in the way of biographical information either, mostly his adult information. I use "frank cottrell boyce" as my search words and did get lists of his books and info about screen-writing, but not a lot on his early years. My search did leave me interested in reading his book Millions though! Have you read it?

    I've not seen the movie. I wonder if the book is better? Usually they are, but one article I read suggested that the movie came first in this case, and Boyce wanted the book to be different from the movie. I think I'll read the book first, then see the movie!
