Returning to Latin names (in some cases, latinized Greek):

Asella (St. Asella of Rome)
Basiliscus (St. Basiliscus of Comana)
Castor (St. Castor of Apt, St. Castor of Karden, St. Castor of Tarsus)
Dorcas (of Joppa; in some calendars, Tabitha)
Falco (Bl. Falco of La Cava)

Quid plura?

Best again,
John Dillon

Well, there's Wulfstan of Sermo lupi ad anglos fame, not to mention Wulfila/Ulfilas. There are a couple of Adolfs as well, literally "noble wolf."

Does the dog-headed version of St Christopher count?

My dears!
Lets listen a story of „paradise":
Agnes (no more a lamb) married (not yet saint) Leopold (margave of Austria) and this marriage was very productive.

Or think about softer beings, e. g.:
Columba
Gallus
Does anyone know others?
Yours
Karl
