Basically the real "Mr. Sanders" was the prior resident of the house where Pooh now lived. Therefore, when A. A. Milne wrote in his book that Pooh lived under the name of Sanders, the book clarifies this statement by stating: "It means he had the name (Sanders) over the door in gold letters and Pooh lived under it.

Sanders in nobody, at least nobody in the regards to Pooh. It's just the name above the door that Pooh lives under. Evidently Sanders occupied the residence before Pooh moved in.

Mr. Sanders lived in the house before Winnie the pooh moved in. Fred Sanders was a friend of the illustrator and it may have been a private joke. The illustrator was E. H. Shepard.
