Ernst is a character in both the play and musical versions of Spring Awakening. He struggles with accepting his sexuality, and is the love interest of Hanschen.
The first Ernst that comes to my mind is Ernst Röhm, a member of the Nazi party, which is hardly an honourable namesake. Putting aside all negative associations, the name itself looks unfinished, which is why I prefer Ernest.
