My daughter played softball (middle school years) with a pair of sisters
Harmony and Melody.  They played well together.  It's a small world; I
wouldn't be surprised.

But we digress...

Luxotica impresses me preposterous, reminiscent of Bond Girls names
in the Sean Connery days.  All of the men's names sound like they are
from Charles Dickens,  J.K. Rowling, or Lemony Snicket.  Ethelbert
Buttersby get my vote...reminds me of Ethelred the Unready, which carries
an inherent preposterosity.
