Perhaps you were even inspired by someone imaginary, as a character from a book or movie. You need to be careful when choosing the name, however, as there could be consequences based upon the name you ultimately give your baby. For instance, if you are hero is Andrew Jackson, then calling the baby Andrew is perfectly okay.
