HelpRe: English names with unfortunate meanings
in reply to a message by erb816
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!
