Qualifying for time travel

Is it me or does one need a surname containing five letters to qualify as a time-traveller? (I refer to humans, not timelords.)

The Time Machine (movie adaptation, 1960): Wells
Back to the Future: McFly
Life on Mars: Tyler
Ashes to Ashes: Drake
Recent companions on Doctor Who: Tyler, Jones, Noble

I realize in Somewhere in Time, the character is Collier, but Superman can do anything.

LOL-- What a strange coincidence! I suppose I'm out of the competition, I have six letters in my last name.

Me, too! I am out as well!
After I wrote this, I remembered that Time after Time also had a lead character posing as H. G. Wells.

‘I think they’re wonderful. They have so much courage! Here they are, hurling through space on a molten rock at 67,000 miles an hour, and the only thing that keeps them in their shoes is their misplaced faith in gravity.’—John Lithgow as Prof Dick Solomon, in Third Rock from the Sun
