    Lavey was named after Anton LaVey. Ginger was formerly Goblin until we found out she's a female :). Bela, named after Bela Lugosi, the vampire actor, though she's a girl. Luna, after the moon goddess. Samael, another occult reference and neat band. And Apache the BCI, after the Native American tribe. I am into the occult/native american mysticism and the names fit!

    I am a huge fan of the anime Inuyasha, and have named several of my pets after characters from the show depending on relevance, thus I named my snake Tsubaki after a dark priestess who would summon a serpent from her eye.
