If you think thats bad look at the names of the Sirens assistants such
as Radnor, Hanley, Cannock, Birkenhead etc. These are all well known
English (and Welsh) place names, it looks like someone got them straight
out of an atlas

One of my favorite sources for names is the *Character Naming Sourcebook*,
published by Writer's Digest Books (ISBN 0-89879-632-6). It lists first and
last names, plus meanings, for a wide range of cultures (current and past),
including many you don't find in other sources (such as Anglo-Saxon, Gaelic,
Celtic, Welsh, Persian, Basque, and Arthurian Legend Names, to list a few).
