You can probably add the Jack Aubrey novels to the list, but the tricky thing with the UF universe is that you can never really be certain that anything even a bit folkloric - Zorro, Captains Hornblower and Aubrey, or the Red Book of Westmarch, just to use an example you didn't touch on - doesn't really have a basis of fact behind it, albeit often, as with the Red Book, one that the general public of Midgard doesn't know about.

"Hornblower", for instance, is the name of a well-established vættir clan, mostly to be found in the western Shire; they're even mentioned (albeit only in passing) in the Red Book*.

Still, don't let that cramp the thought experiment. It'll be interesting to me to see what people come up with...
