Hmmmmm.... I don't know if you've chosen a first name for your bard or what you're looking for if you haven't, but here are some suggestions to do with as you may.
Solomon - a leader that was renowned for his wisdom. Aristotle - Might be a bit too plageristic. You could use a variation such as Aris or Aristo. Since bards are known for their songs, perhaps a variation on the name of an exotic songbird of some type (none spring to mind off the top of my head - at least not yet). As for original material, I do have a short story I wrote a while back about the folly of a greedy group of adventurers that sought to rob a mage operating a magic shop and the fate that befell them. It's a bit long, but I could send it as an attachment to an email if you wish.

As for the name, I usually try to come up with something original.

As for the name you could use the Kirith random name generator. Try fantasy-halfling or tolkien-took.

Well, I dunno if you already settled on a first name, but I did a typo and came up with a halfling-type name: Aslo (pernownced Az-low)
The number of wierd names I could get from typos would be in the hundreds, if I could remember them all afterwords... SilentThief

There once was a man from Katraz who had two balls made of brass. And when they clanged together, they made stormy weather and he shot lightning out his ass.
A little one my dad made up that for some odd reason has just stuck with me my whole life. |

I think I'll use that as we go along on our jounrey. Specially when it's one of those bad weather days.
Well, I was reading the Bible last night and I turned to Leviticus. It just seemed a fitting name, even though he's a Halfling.
