Granted Edward's spell is really nothing like the way names have been used in The Dresden Files (atm at least) but that's where the idea of using names in a spell came from.

By the way I read your most recent chapter and it was good but I had to put it down a few times because of all the really heavy prose. Overall I love the story, I just can't read some parts of it in one sitting.
I knew it!

Another interesting source for using True Names would Skulduggery Pleasant, that has a similar feeling to Dresden Files.

I really enjoy your writing style! Can't wait for the next chapter.
