I think that in the USA the "Gothic" novel "Edgar Huntly" by Charles Brockden Brown (1799) and the character in Shakespeare's play "King Lear" had as much influence as Sir Walter Scott's character on use of the name. Edgar Allan Poe's parents were both actors who had performed in "King Lear" shortly before his birth, and he was born a decade before the publication of Scott's "The Bride of Lammermoor".

Brawl Stars has a character named Edgar. Let's face it. He's an angry kid. He also likes parkour.
That's all (He punches people with a scarf).
Sorry I don't think this should be here.
