John Farrier's Comments

I remember that, while working at a Walmart as a teenager, a customer asked me for a toy motorcycle helmet. The stated had passed a helmet law and she wanted to avoid getting stopped by the police. But she didn't want to wear an actual helmet.

All in all seriousness, Benjamin is right. Maybe naming a baby after a hero (with a normal name, say, Clark instead of Kal-El) would work, but a villain's name is just asking for bullying.

There are also traditions, such as getting your ear pierced with a nail before starting off.

I like to say that you're not really a librarian until you get your first death threat from a patron. It's a right of passage, like a nail through the ear.
