Can't remember what book the character was from, there have probably been several books with a character of that name, many of them probably R-rated or X-rated!

I suppose that's what you get if you start asking for a very limited aspect. I don't think there are that many groups named after fictional humans. All characters from Lord of the rings should be dropped. No animals, no real people, which leaves us with not much more than Uriah Heep.
That narrows it down a lot, there are tons of bands named after Gods, Demons, Places even Swords out of fictional novels.
I can only come up with (Uther) Pendragon from the King Arthur saga (which was a fictional novel in the start)
Of couse there are more based on this source like Parzival (German Folk Prog) Galahad (Neo Prog) Galaad (Swiss Neo Prog)

The Archies - named for Archie Andrews in Archie comics.
If The Archies are allowed, then so are The Veronicas!
Unless of course someone says "Oh no those are comics, not books."
Eloy, I believe were from HG Well's "The Time Machine"
