"Please excuse my ignorance"

I had read in a review that Hector was -"of course" a reference of The Iliade or the Odyssée by Homere...

Yes, that is of course the most famous Hector, the Troyan war hero. I think that reference is intended, even if it's just one among others. You can't really use the name Hector in a lyric without raking up all of that dust from antiquity and of course Morrissey is very much aware of this.

I think you pretty much can. Hector is a common Hispanic name. That's all there is to it.
