I've used the names of friends and family members, but only if I also liked the names. For instance, I would never consider Edna or Percy, though they are family names. So I can't really see the problem with a child being named after someone who is (a) dead and (b) had a nice name. I don't find it upsetting to think about. If it's not such a nice name, then use it as a mn, why not?
