Soldiers who served under an alias often chose their mother's maiden name. 6 Public Family Trees on Ancestry tell me his mother's maiden name was Knight. 4697 Private Frederick Knight did serve in the 18th Hussars but having found his attestation papers and service records on FMP definitely not Charles Henry Gath in disguise.

Just searched 18th Hussars records on FMP for somebody born in Nunhead but a zero return - but changing his place of birth could have been part of the subterfuge (if there was one).
