I've been obsessing about John Buchan and his arch-villain, Dominic Medina. I'll give it up, but only after this curious footnote: Medina may be mostly forgotten but he has at lteast modern day fictional analog.
Consider: Dominic Medina has
- the first name of a saint, and
- the second name of an exotic faraway place—and
- it ends in a vowel.
Now consider the
most successful fictional villain ever.
