It’s totally okay to name yourself after someone you admire. Parents do it all the time, they name their kids after family members, friends, celebrities, anything, and you can do the same. You’re not faking anything, and I love your name. It suits you.
i named myself after my favorite james bond actor, you can name yourself after whatever and whoever the fuck you want
Frederick Douglass ditched his slave name and called himself after a character from Sir Walter Scott, so there’s legit precedent.
