I find it difficult to read Walter Scott, but the Waverley associations in Edinburgh are powerful: the monument, the main railway station ... and where I live, Waverley is the brand name of the most popular brand of blankets. Not human, by any means. And if I met a human Waverley, I'd be at a loss to know what to call them: Wave? Wavy? The full 'name'? I'd ask them about their experiences with the name, but whatever they said, I wouldn't rush off and use it for my next child.
