Literary Names

I'm a writer and wanted to pick a name that shows my connection to literature, but cant think of anything I like!

I suggested some names from LOTR and from Shakespeare to my husband, but he thought the LOTR ones were too wierd and the Shakers ones were too mainstream to be obvious where they were from.

I need a boys name that says "From a famous book" like Sherlock, but not quite so odd. Does that make sense?
