Satoshi sent an email to a mailing list, and Hal was one of the first people that got interested right away from that group.
Hal Finney made a nice post in bitcointalk explaining his experience with Bitcoin.
It doesn't make too much sense that Satoshi was Hal to be honest. The more you read about what happened in the beginning, the more you realized they were two different people.
If I was a cryptographer with a nym, I'd also be sure to document the story of my involvement from my "true name" just so there's testimony that provides evidence of separation of my identities.
There's precedent for anonymous founders using their alternative accounts to spread awareness of the project. The first username to mention the Silk Road belonged to Ross, for example.
Plenty of nyms are involved in the same company or organization as their true identity.
Just observations. Satoshi is whoever you want him to be. That's the beauty.
