Does the character (or actor) have an unusual accent or pronunciation?
Not in particular. I just pointed it out because other names have also coincided with words, e.g., {Qugh}, {mogh}. It makes me wonder about what their parents were thinking, to name their kids {Qugh} or {mogh}. (It also makes me wonder why Okrand decided that {Qugh} is both "Kruge" and "disaster". I think the TNG writers made up "Mogh", though, and I wonder if they looked up the word in the dictionary first.) -- De'vID
