[Opinions] Re: Real Surnames that sounds like RPG character surnames
in reply to a message by batsqueak
I do this too haha
I actually had a spreadsheet with "magical" names on it that I use for the DnD campaign and for my writing!
I also love finding people with superhero names - I've run into real life Logan Howlett (Wolverine), Wade Wilson (Deadpool), Lorna Dane (Polaris), and Jean Grey. Also I've run into a couple Wayne Bruce's, which is Batman's name backwards haha Also met a Barbara Gordon (Batgirl).
I find it very amusing in my normally dull day-to-day life lol

I had a travelling coworker at one point that was named Xavier and delightfully informed me he was in fact named after the X-Men character. My brother is named Jacen, and it took me a LONG time to find this out, but he's apparently named after a character from the Star Wars novels.
