The rules are simple: Everybody suggest a real-life person (living or dead) whose name sounds like somebody you would expect to meet in the Forgotten Realms. Yes, you can submit more than one name.

My entries:
Danny Elfman (Half-Elven Bard, anyone?)
Zoltan Kodaly (I think the second L is silent).
Sprintz Arbegast (She does the traffic reports on my local radio station. Name sounds very Gnomish.)

Wolf Blitzer (Human bard Town-Crier)

Karl Rove- Human rogue/bard

Aristotle Onassis- Elven mage

Kelsey Grammer- Human loremaster

Peter Romanitsch Safreider - Knight or Paladin

Elder Frost (Cleric of Latter Day Gauths - a recent neighbour)

Adrienne Xenides (Former gameshow host. She'd be maybe an Elven Sorceror or something!)

And now for someone slightly more risque - introducing:
Human Conjuror extraordinaire Peter North! (I believe there is a character named Peter of the North near one of the caves in BG1!)

Tom Cruise - Human(?) Bard/Moron

Roman Abramovich: megalomaniac whose mission is to buy the Umar Inn and make it bigger and more impressive than De'Arnise Keep.

Tiger Woods

Ice Cube (Human specialist mage focussing on Evocation - Loves casting Cone of Cold and Ice Storm)

Edward Woodward (Male Beastmaster, lives out in the forrests in a nice log cabin and just loves using wooden weapons)
