I don't know. But a connection to Harry Potter is at least associated with someone heroic. I'm stuck with the evil Chucky from the horror movies, although I might claim Charlie Brown, who at least is lovable. Todd gets a Simpson character named after him, and Bruce of course gets to have the Batman, Bruce Wayne, as his namesake.
