There was a OB/GYN doctor here in my area whose last name is "Dickstif".
A co-worker years ago from Sweden by the name of Ivan Yurkinov. It was much funnier when he said his name.

unfortunately, CoS was the HP book I liked the least. I'm not sure I'd be able to contribute anything worthwhile to your discussion. Possibly when you move on to PoA I'll join in.
