A new experience

I was looking around the internet for something interesting, and I came across a surprising revelation at the official Star Wars website by the name of Tru Veld. This Expanded Universe character is of the Teevan race...which I mention becuase Teevan is my last name IRL, and I almost NEVER see it anywhere besides next to the first names of my family-members. As a Star Wars fan, I'm pretty happy about the whole thing, just as long as Lucas doesn't try to copyright it.

Do any of you have an uncommon last name that popped up in an unexpected place?

My last name is Sands. I''m told it''s a pluralized form of a word about some kind of grainy silica substance. I''m not very good at chemistry, so I have no idea what people are talking about.

LeFort is my last name. Just frogspeak for ""The Strong"".
