By chance does your screen name have any reference to Radu the Handsome?

I'm not sure who Radu the Handsome is, I'm sorry to say. I chose it because it's the name of my favorite vampire (I love vampire stories and movies). To add to many folks' confusion, Radu is a masculine name....and I'm a female. LOL! It's a loooong story.

He was Vlad the Impaler's little brother who was "converted" into a Turk after he and Vlad were captured. Vlad escaped and made his way back to Romania while Radu stayed and was later sent to Romania to overthrow Vlad when he was not bowing to his Ottoman invaders. Here is a brief history. Would the favorite vampire name come from Bram Stoker?

C'mon, FReepmail me. I've got time and I am curious.
