There's the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleotology is Drumheller, Canada. It's named after Joseph Burr Tyrrell, a geologist who first found dinosaur fossils in the area. The name Tyrrell makes me think of "tyranonsaurus", so I think it's a pretty great name for the museum. I'll never be able to hear the name without thinking of dinosaurs.

BabyNames.com had this name erroneously listed as "African American origin" meaning "Thunder Ruler". I have the feeling that was either a prank or the doing of an Afrocentric person.More likely, American blacks gravitated towards this name as a number of them have developed an affinity for names that end in "ell". Certainly a much nicer sounding set of names than the "Sha" or "La" names.
