I have a really strong connection to certain characters, and would love to one day honour those characters in some way in my future children’s names. However, most of the characters have pretty intense or even bizarre names, and I’m not sure how to go about it…
They are:
Any suggestions?
Oh Dustfinger is such a wonderful character! I’m not as much of a fan of [name]Les[/name] Mis, so I’ll let others discuss that one.
Dustfinger.
Hmm.
I’d go with some fire name, since he was a fire-dancer. A name that feels fiery, or means fire, flame, etc. Or, if you’re nuts (adventurous?), put Dustfinger in the middle and call him [name]Dusty[/name]. 
Or use [name]Dustin[/name], which is Dustfinger without the f-g-e-r. Perhaps [name]Dustin[/name] middle name ends in -ger? [name]Dustin[/name] [name]Fire[/name]? You could also use [name]Gwin[/name], or Motley (as in Folk).
Ooh, I love [name]Les[/name] Miz! I agree, Enjolras is a pretty heavy, bizarre name, especially for the US. I could definitely work as a middle name though. I wouldn’t use it as a first, but I guess it could work. Maybe you could use the nickname [name]Joel[/name].
Why don’t you do a Super Search for names that contain “dust”?
I remember Dustfinger! Wow, that was a while ago, hah.
I really like the suggestion of [name]Dustin[/name], honestly can’t think of anything else for that at the moment.
Enjorlas is a great character! I’m still not done with the book, (I’ve heard soundtracks and seen the recent movie, though) but I hope he has a good part in it! There’s a good chance that that isn’t his actual name, Wikipedia doesn’t say. I think it’s totally usable as a first name, and is awesome.
Okay, might have to add a character to that list because he’s becoming more and more important to me:
Grantaire, another [name_u]Les[/name_u] Mis character.
I’m not sure how I feel about [name_u]Dustin[/name_u], as all the Dustins I knew in school were pretty nasty, but I like the idea of a fire-themed name…
Enjolras nn [name_m]Joel[/name_m] is so cute!!
