 As for his name:
Soren is just a cool Scandiwhovian name
but for those interested it is derived from the latin name Severus meaning austere.
Other etymologies suggest that it is a form of Thor and Thunder
Nils is for a dear friend of ours from college, Erik Paul Nils Johnson,
an artist and writer who died unexpectedly in Fall of 2003.
It means Victory of the People
Harrison is a name taken from Christian's paternal great-grandfather,
William Harrison McGuire (b. 1856?-1941);
But its really an homage to Beatle - George Harrison and our childhood action hero Harrison Ford.
Harry means Ruler of the Home so I guess Harrison is Son of the ruler of the Home.
