I put forward Zoltan.
Magnus and Wolfgang
Cracked has a nice list here (http://www.cracked.com/article_14982_9-manliest-names-in-world.html).
I'm particularly fond of Dr. Duncan Steel. Perfect name for a power-armored super.

That wins the thread right there. LOVE it! Staff Sgt. Max Fucking Fightmaster.... gold. What's even better about Dr. Duncan Steel is all the shit he has done, awesome... I wanna make a rpg character of this guy. He has to just take the plunge and finish shaving his head though... oh, and grow a Van Dyke, just ask Goldberg and Stone Cold.
Wolf Blitzer...if that is his real name.

I actually like the full beard. Reminds me of Professor Bernard Quartermass, as played by Andrew Keir in 1967's

Only one of the best films in the universe ever!
Niedermeyer (from the movie "Animal House").

The same actor who played Niedermeyer, also played the father in the Twisted Sister video "We're Not Gonna Take It" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WT1LXhgXPWs) and the teacher in the "I Wanna Rock" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOfgl5a_6lA&feature=related) video.
There's a doctor in my area named "Atta Butt".

Indeed. Modest too!
On the news recently, lost her job for taking too many sick days or something:
Kara Jorud
met a waiter named Marvel years back...thought that was cool.
Percy Hotspur is,well, singular...
Saw a headstone that read Fanny Bird!
:D
I know of an Edwina Hamburger, Hendro Munstermann, and a Spontaneous Searchparty.
Not necessarily hero PC cool, but cool in their own ways.
I be rather fond of the moniker 'Spike' for cool names, but that be me.
This guy (http://www.libertarian.on.ca/Elec2007/zork_hun.htm) ran for office in my riding a couple or three years ago.
At work, I used to be in communication with the principal of another company whose services we endorsed. He went by the name Billings Chapman, Esq.
I've always thought that would be a great name for a spy/espionage-type villain.
Curzio Malaparte and Truman Capote.
Not only great writers, their names totally rocks.
Jonathan Steele, a journalist working for The Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/jonathansteele).
Interestingly enough, also an Italian comic-book character (http://www.sergiobonellieditore.it/auto/cpers_index?pers=jonathan).
Cyclonophile just mentioned author... "Alastair Reynolds"
I might know a guy named "Rex Newbank"
I do know a girl that gave her son "Danger" as a middle name. His last name is "Hammer." You can't make that stuff up.

I went to high school with a guy named Eric Steele.
A friend of mine named his son Jupiter...calls him Jup.(like Joop)! and another buddy named his first boy Thor (last name Shearer)!
