Who knows if the Professor wasn't somehow influenced by this [That Hideous Strength] and was inspired a bit when he created Radagast.

Not possible, since Radagast's creation predated THS by several years. Indeed he goes back at least in name to The Hobbit; and the passages in LR where he is mentioned date from 1939-40.

Indeed something I overlooked.

EDIT: But, he still might have been influenced by the myth.
