Yea, you two are definitely right. Probably when picking out the name for Oliver (Vocaloid), they found a name they liked and probably were planning to change it, but when designing him, Dappleback or a fan (because Oliver was made with fan support) probably suddenly (what am I, a let's player trying to stay calm in the face of danger?) thought he looked kind of like Oliver Twist (albeit coincidentally) and then, probably when thinking for the bird's name, a Thomas & Friends fan/otaku suggested the name James (you know, after that Really Splendid Engine and that J-Pop star that doesn't use the Green Engine's name because it was taken) and I guess the choirboy liked Thomas & Friends (who doesn't? I'm 11, and I'm still suckered in), so Oliver and James are semi-affiliates of the TTTE fanbase because they share names with 2 characters! Fact: There is a Thomas The Tank Engine annual story named Oliver Gets The Bird. If Chuggaaconroy were here, he'd find it hard to resist a bad pun.
