Interesting... What makes a name "real"? Opinions, anyone?

I would say that any name which is legally borne by another is a "real name". It may be a recently invented and unique name, but that doesn't make it any less "real" to the person who bears the name and is publicly known by it.

Have you actually encountered someone named "Eliette"?
