Jinx, Lynx, latin and James Bond

If it's spelled "Jynx" then the explanation could lie behind the word "lynx" which is latin in origin if I'm not mistaken then this Jame Bond's "Jynx" would be "wryneck+lynx"... Anyway... Try not to trust pop-film etymology (they are in for folk etymology above all)... Probably the James Bond "Jynx" is based directly upon the "Jinx" word (which I learnt from Mario RPG... :D Great game :D)... For... I guess... You are refering to "James Bond" 'cause it's the source of the name upon which you are asking the question... I'm I right or did my guess failed? (bye, have a good time)
