Actually the simplest thing to do is to add a new identity to your pgp 
key.
 $ pgp -h
 ...
 Add another userid:     pgp -ke     your_userid       [keyring]
 ...

So in your case you can run something like
 $ pgp -ke Lowe 
and respond to the questions indicating that you want to add an
identity.  AFAIK current versions of deb-make require that you have
the same identity listed in /etc/passwd and on the pgp key.
