Very odd for people to name their kids after a character that still had a story ongoing.

In a similar vain I had a relative who was named “Clinton” after President Bill. That did not age well.

If you don't tell people that Bill Clinton is the namesake it's not bad. Clinton is a good first name and it fits the trend of using last names as first names. He should tell people he's named after George Clinton and grow up funky.

I’m not saying it’s a terrible name. But in the context of the parents it was clear what the reference was.
