It is interesting to note that the origin (etymology) of the name "Bertram" means "bright raven."  The raven can imply wisdom when used as part of a name. However, in poetry, the raven generally symbolizes death. For instance, the raven is generally interpreted to symbolize death in William Blake's poem "The Human Abstract." It is also interesting that the name "Gale" can mean "jovial" or someone who lives near a jail.

Clearly, this alone is not enough to suggest Bertram is RJ - but it is interesting to note...
