Where did the name Ragnar come from?
Ragnar is a name important to both Marshall and Scott. Marshall is a direct descendant of Ragnar Lothbrok, who was King of all Norway. This historical figure conquered Scandinavia and his children England, Ireland, Scotland & France.
Scott's favorite book is Atlas Shrugged. Ragnar Danneskjöld is one of the main characters. He is a pirate who seizes relief ships sent from the United States to other countries so he can return the money to those who paid through their taxes.
