movie names!!!

[kimber-leigh.livejournal.com]

I'm sitting here watching The Holiday (when I really should be working)..  And I thought I'd post the names of the actors and the names of the characters they play.. 

1.  Tell me what you think of both names 

2.  Tell me which name you prefer, the character name or the actors name that plays them.. 

Cameron - Amanda
Kate - Iris
Jude - Graham
Jack - Miles
Eli - Arthur
Edward - Ethan
Rufus - Jasper
Miffy - Sophie
Emma - Olivia
Sarah - Hannah
Shannyn - Maggie
Kathryn - Bristol  

*edit: i removed the last names of the actors to cut down on any negative or positive connotations for the names associated with the actor..

I once posted about Bristol and Camden, but I really got mediocre rating for Bristol :P I really like it!

I have to comment on the hilarious oddities in that movie. There's a point where Amanda and Iris are chatting online, and the screen shows something like this:

Amanda: I have a huge house in LA
Iris: I live in a little cottage
Amanda: Blah blah
Iris: Blah blah.

When the film isn't showingthe screen, the girls are thinking what they type. At one point, they say, "I'm Amanda." and "I'm Iris."

Hello.... it says that on the screen!!!

I like:
Jude
Miles
Jasper
Emma
Olivia
Bristol (although not for a girl!)

I dislike the name Jasper and I think is because I associate it it with "bad" characters. There's the Jasper in that movie and the Jasper in "28 Days" the movie with Sandra Bullock. Her alcoholic bf is named Jasper in that movie.

And Jasper in 101 Dalmations. Haha

Jack - Miles: I love both names. But if I had to choose...Jack =)
Eli - Arthur: LOVE Eli. It's on my list. Arthur is alright.
Edward - Ethan: I don't like Edward. Ethan is ok.
Rufus - Jasper: Dislike both names, but if I had to choose, I'd go with Jasper.
Miffy - Sophie: Miffy is strange. I know many Sophie's. But it's an ok name.
Emma - Olivia: Both are a little boring, but decent. I like Olivia better.
