Can I set custom developer's name for creating files in Xcode?

When Xcode creates new textual file, it contains such header:

//
//  AppDelegate.swift
//  application name
//
//  Created by Developer Name on 25.07.17.
//  Copyright © 2017 company. All rights reserved.
//

Application name and company values gives from project when developer's name from macOS account

Can I set custom developer's name for project in Xcode directly, without changing or setting up OS account?

It needed for example when one mac uses for work and home projects. I want to set my real name for work projects and pen name for home.

  • Thanks for Mark's comment I found answer

    For set custom project developer's name info.plist file must be edited

    Just add row Copyright (human-readable) (source code key is NSHumanReadableCopyright) and enter needed name:

    enter image description here

    Or directly in source code:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>NSHumanReadableCopyright</key> <!-- developer name key -->
    <string>Developer Name</string> <!-- developer name value -->
<!-- ... and further ... -->
