There do seem to be an innordinate amount of matching names... Godric Gryffindor, Salazar Slytherin, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, Florean Fortesque, Pavarti Patil... erm... I'm sure there's more than that. Although that said, if it is a wizarding tradition then it seems strange that the Malfoys would break it being rampant pure-bloods and all. I definately go with Alina's cute theory and hope it was just a phase, although that makes the Malfoys seem to have some semblance of sense and taste, which is just scary. :)
