    Hmm. Here are some hard-sounding first names that come to mind…
    –Bill
    –Brandon
    –Cyrus
    –Deion (or Dion)
    –Gene
    –Gordon
    –Virgil

    If you’re going for something old-fashioned/biblical because of the angelic elements, you could try Isaiah, Silas or Joseph.

    For last names, I kind of liked…
    –Morrison
    –Fox
    –Myers
    –Breyers
    –Pitt (or Pittman)
    –Boyle
    –Hoffman
    –Tillman
    –Moody
    –Roberts
    –Westbrook

    :D Dion is the name of a character in one of my stories I am transferring to the computer and revising. It’s a great name.

    Haha, yeah. I used sports, video games and the Supreme Court for references, in addition to the Seventh Sanctum’s name generator.

    In football, Deion Sanders is one of my favorite defensive players ever. And Pat Tillman, but for very different reasons.
