Re: Copyrighted character names.

Should not be the problem.
No name should be rendered to "should not be use for anything - forever" - just because it's used in some media what is at some point sold to consumers.

Lets take example of real human names.
Here is web page of finnish Population Register Centre's registry where you can search specific names and you get appearance count per certain time periods.

You can find:
gandalf, frodo, xena, krystle, demian, damien, j, jesus (but not finnish version of it "jeesus").
