Not an Italian? Maybe someone with an Italian father and English mother.

“feel free to use the name for a Sims character.”

Just the name for someone in a career track that, up until now, I hadn’t been considering.

“Sadly, he doesn’t fit in any projects I’ve currently got in mind.”

Maybe he could be mentioned in passing in something soon, then you could revisit and flesh him out in a later work.

It's grown some since then. I certainly <em>ought</em> to use <strong>Basil Genovese</strong> as a character name. I see a tweedy, slightly effete Englishman, embroiled in 1920s-30s international intrigue clear up to his pencil-thin moustache. Sadly, he doesn't fit in any projects I've currently got in mind. And, jeez, it's not like I <em>need</em> more story ideas! In any event feel free to use the name for a <strong><em>Sims</em></strong> character. As for using the name <strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitty_Genovese" rel="nofollow">Kitty Genovese</a></strong>, agreed it's in too-bad taste. The phrase "too soon" comes to mind...

Good work, Vic. Which one's the Genovese Basil? And can we anticipate a character named Basil Genovese in some upcoming opus? If you don't use the name, I'm going to use it for a "Sims" character... if I can come up with similarly obscurely goofy names for the rest of his family. (I think "Kitty" for his wife/sister/daughter is in too much bad taste, though, even for me.) - M. \"/ YEAH! Good work, Vic.
