• Harlequin - Arlecchino (also known as Harlequin in English, Arlequin in French) is the most popular of the zanni or comic servant characters from the Italian Commedia dell'Arte. Arlecchino traditionally wore an outfit of patches and rags which evolved into the lozenge-shaped motley seen today. His mask was black with a large red blemish on his forehead similar to a boil.

• Could this be a combination of opposites? Hurley (Jarl van Hoother) and Quinn (Prankquean). This would suggest love or sexual union, but also a second paring with Hurlyburly, from Macbeth Act I, Scene I, for tumult and war. If so, this unites only the opposites of male and female (HCE and ALP) but also the opposites of war and peace (and Love).
