Yes, they are names of humans. But nobody is named that nowadays. There arent Odysseus' and Stanislaus' in the average school year. Whost you can find a dozen Lucases, so.....

I might be an outlier, here, but I went to school with an Odysseus that went by Odie back in the 90s. Guys full name was Odysseus -McIrishname- and he was pretty much the main character from the start.
