[Opinions] Re: English names with unfortunate meanings
Well, there’s Uther, which means “terrible”, Morfin which means “cursed” and Frigidian which means “cold”, though I’m not sure if those would fit in Victorian England.

Ooooh, I really like Uther for this character! In Arthurian legend Uther Pendragon uses magical disguise (via Merlin) to sleep with Igraine, so it's fraud and a story Victorians would've been familiar with. Thank you!
