To heck with that. I have a number of bumbling dwarves story and was searching for names Disney didn't copyright. That list is exactly what I needed. The dwarves in my stories are complete flakes, the kind you call in as handymen so they can destroy your house for you. That fits nicely.
I was in a travelling production of Snow White, so we talked a lot about it. A lot of people think the Disney names are synonymous with symptoms of Cocaine use.

Isn't that, like, a politically incorrect slur against handymen? ;)
My mom loved this one.
