Usuallly, you'd just add a UID.

If you want a second subkey so that people encrypting to your work email 
address would use a different key to those encrypting to your home email 
address, that's probably a job for a second key. It means always having both 
secret keys available as well.

adduid from the --edit-key menu.

--addkey adds a subkey that can be used if you have a short expiry on your 
encryption key compared to the main key, or to use different algorithm 
preferences.

Only adduid or a second key will list both work and home email addresses.
