Names after characters

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

So I've become a total The Mentalist geek, gone, whoosh, totally obsessed with the show.
Just for fun, I thought I'd ask what you think of the names Lisbon for a girl and Jane for a boy. These are from the main characters, Teresa Lisbon (chief of the police unit) and Patrick Jane (the mentalist himself).

I've quickly grown to love how Lisbon sounds in english, although I'm not thrilled about it in the written form. And Jane on a boy, I can only picture that as a middle name, but I'm thinking maybe not too weird, considering how many actual girl's names were originally boy's names and so forth..

P.s. I'm in love with Simon Baker...

Jane is the feminine version of John... Using the feminine version of a boy's name on a boy is just...no. >:S
Lisbon is not a good first name.
