Who Would Have Been Rum?

As some (or most) of you may know, Gosho stated in an interview that he had wanted to codename a member of the Black Organization "Rum" for a while, but was unable to due to the popularity of the character of Lum from the
Urusei Yatsura manga (he even drew a comedic picture illustrating this).
I'm of the belief that Gosho would most likely have used the codename on an agent that has already appeared in the manga, as a few of them, in my opinion, sound a little more obscure. I'm also only listing men, because so far, Gosho has only listed women's codenames as being lighter spirits. So I'm asking you all to vote on whom you think that agent would have been. Personally, I chose Rye
as their codenames just seemed really similar.

Now that I think about it, I agree with you. He was the other one I was seriously considering.

Forgot about Pisco too. I doubt it would have been one of the ladies, however, as stated in my first post.
