Agree. Don't use it. It's a name meant to be memorable for tv, like Dawson and

Ha, no. Joey has a boy's name b/c the show creator was gay and wanted to express his homosexuality.
"“Every single character is one of my personalities,” he said, explaining how he, in a way, was every one of the main four characters, and was from “the real Dawson’s Creek.” However he didn’t know how to bring in the element that he grew up as a gay teen. So, before Jack, the only way to do it was to give the two main characters boy names..."

As adorable as Joshua Jackson is, Pacey was the “Jim Belushi” character according to the show runner. Belushi was anything but adorable. Go with Joshua or Jackson if you're set on a tribute.
