Barry James Bagsley was not called "Ishmael" because "Ishmael" is the name of the narrator in Herman Melville's novel "Moby-Dick." The phrase "Call me Ishmael" is iconic and serves as an introduction to the character and the story. Bagsley likely has a different identity or context that distinguishes him from this literary reference.
