With surname 'Norton' would calling ds 'Isaac' be cruel?

Dh thinks the Isaac Newton connection is too close and would lead to some (admittedly highbrow!) teasing! What do you think? Cruel?

it sounds familiar the second you hear it - but it's not obvious why. zak norton sounds great too. I wouldn't let it worry you.

No. Isaac's a lovely name. I don't think there's a connection, or it's too close sounding.
