I'm awful at coming up with names.

Come up with the most noir name you can for a bald man. An ascetic-monk looking suited asshole who gets beat up a lot.

Bonus points for alliteration that isn't hokey.

I used the name Jack Matthews in a short story I wrote about a private eye. It obviously wasn't his real name. Just pick two first names, slap an s on last one, and go with it.

Bruce Williams
Stan Josephs
Greg Alexander. . .okay, that doesn't have an s, but you get the point.

This is the cheap way of doing it, of course.

I quite like Wesley because it sounds a little like weasley and this guy sounds like a weasley character then something with a religious connotation to hint at the monk-looking thing like Wesley again (Wesleyan Methodism), Calvin (Calvinism) or Benedict (like Benedictine monks) so I think some comblination of Wesley/Calvin/Benedict would be good.
