The boy in my dream could be have been real once. iin?

One night, I had a dream. I dreamt I was in a warm, dimly lit room with a boy. He didn't harass me or anything. We just talked. We were sitting opposite each other across a glossy table made of dark wood. There was a fireplace blazing behind him. He had hair the colour of old paper, and a milk-white face. I remember talking about wether invisible things can be created. He seemed to know the answer to all my questions. After I awoke, I wondered how and why my subconscious could have given me the boy in the dream. I tried to recall if he had told me his name, and instantly, a name appeared in my mind - I didn't even have the chance to think. Paladin. It was like the answer was obvious; it was like I was remembering. I thought my mind had simply made it up, simply putting a 'p' before the famous Disney name 'Aladin', until I searched it. I had never heard of that name before, but when I searched it on the internet, I was shocked and mildly disturbed. I found out that Paladin was an ancient name meaning 'medieval prince', 'fighter of a cause', 'knightly hero' and 'defender of a noble cause'. I had certainly never heard of that name or known it's meaning before. I'm not even making this up. Please believe me. I don't know how my subconscious possibly came up with that, and I'm scared. In scared that the boy might have been the product of something other than my own mind.
