Grant as best-known bearer of the name, which is probably confined to US culture; also, I added some caution in the lead, since "Ulixes" is the standard Latin form of the name: " one Latinized version of Odysseus".

Grant (1822–1885); for others in English Wikipedia's worldwide readership, Ulysses S. Grant is far less known.
