You make a good point about the symmetry between Gwydion Dylan and
Harlequin Dylan.

I used to be at Harlequin myself, but I don't know anyone who could
definitively answer the question of whether we can use the name (if
such a person exists).  I'll send mail to harlequit, the mailing list
for ex-Harlequin employees and see what people say.
