Yes, absolutely. For example, there is a famous record producer named Quincy Jones. But the historical name "Quincy" was a last name, and it belonged to a very famous family in early Massachusetts history. You know the name from John Quincy Adams, the 6th President of the United States; but there were other people with the name Quincy, like Josiah Quincy (who was a colonel in the Revolutionary War) and Dorothy Quincy (who married John Hancock). An entire city, about seven miles south of Boston is also named Quincy. (There is another city in Illinois with that name as well.)
