I need a formal name for a nickname please! I'll give you candy! =)?

Alrighty! So, I'm writing a fantasy series in which there's an old drunk (who is more than what meets the eye as he used to be a general in the great war). His name is Irv Hodgenstone. Well, General Irv isn't really that regal or intimidating, so if you could help me out with his first name, that'd be great. That way Irv can just be the shorter version of his name. But please don't make it what I call 'a fantasy stereotypical name' where it's pretty much like... Irchlyrggga'ddzro'k with all the squiggles and stuff above it and making it long and impossible to pronounce. =) Thanks for answering! Here's your candy! *Chucks virtual barrel of candy at you*
