Mind you eskimo is nowadays considered to be a slur in Canada and Greenland and in parts of Alaska. Not the best choice.

I guess this is probably inspired by the character this 1960s song is about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinn_the_Eskimo_(Mighty_Quinn..., which would explain the outdated-sounding name.
...maybe "The Wisdom of Mighty Quinn" would be less controversial?
EDIT: then again, after reading http://preserve.mactech.com/articles/mactech/Vol.16/16.06/Ju..., it's named after an (apparently real) person whose nickname was inspired by that song, so it would be disingenuous to "retcon" it...
