Re: *wow*

Not at all. It's technically "mosquito", I kind of made it more "Saxon" to reflect the speech of Russian villagers... but the name is quite euphonious and neutral. In Russian (and other languages too, I guess), you often go without noticing the meaning of a surname completely if that meaning doesn't stick out too much.
