I have used the names of my kids and an uncle in my docs in the past.

When listing fake names in a document, some tech writers quietly include
their own names. That way, if another company "lifts" material from the
manual, it's easier to detect later on.

I went online to here:

http://online-generator.com/name-generator/elf-name-generator.php

It generates fake elf names. If any elves find out, you're in trouble,
but otherwise I think you should be OK.
