And Gulliver's Travels with Gulliver. But if those are the only references that come to mind, the name is virtually unused, which is what I'm looking for.
But maybe they're a bit too unused, and I should be looking at something else. I like Gilbert and Walter, too, but they're missing that 3-syllable-sound that I like.
... too unused. Yeah, I'd go along with that. One of the reasons I am super careful about never, ever using my real name on any site where I speak openly is because I am apparently the only person with the combination of my unusual first name with my unusual (in this country) last name, according to Google. God forbid I make a powerful enemy somewhere, because all they would have to do to completely destroy my future employability is post publicly about me using my real name.
(That said, should I ever wind up with a daughter I have for nearly a decade thought I would like to name her Luna. Guess it's a good thing I don't actually plan to have kids?)
I hadn't thought of that. I was thinking of Diggory Kirke from the C.S. Lewis books. But I don't think I necessarily mind the Potter thing -- unless it makes the name suddenly too popular.
