Here's a name that I just remembered has having duel meanings.

Curunír - it is an alternate name for Saurman. His name was given to him by the Elves and it means "Skillful Man." I notice that the word is made up or "Cur" which means a mongrel or inferior dog; a surly or cowardly fellow.

It comes from the Middle English word curren to growl (perhaps from Old Norse kurra to grumble).
