Talking about dream characters with unusual names....
My grandfather once told me of a nightmare he'd had as a youngster (so this is an early 20th century dream- from the age of Freud) which featured a bandit or pirate chief called She Bluebell.
This caught my imagination- and I took to drawing pictures of Bluebell who, in my version of him, had beetling brows, a hooked nose and an enormous grin (lifted wholesale, I have to admit, from a cartoon by Michael ffolkes in my parents' newspaper.)
