I like the symbolism of the names of the people at the dinner party in the dead. Freddie Malins, the sick one who ate celery, I believe, for his blood; Gretta, Gabriel's wife, "regret" embedded in her name for the memory of the boy who had died in love with her; Miss Ivors, which has some etymological reference to war, and she was always arguing. Every single name in the story has some symbolic reference.
Today would be a good day to eat kidneys in honor of Leopold Bloom. It would be a good day to make love in honor of Molly Bloom. Yes.
