Pretty much all my favorite names come from books. I fall in love with the characters, which leads to the names...

Matilda (Matilda by Roald Dahl)
Henry and Clare (The Timetraveller's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger)
Lilly and James (Harry Potter)
Dexter (Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay (I think))
Charlotte and Avery (Charlotte's Web by E.B. White)
Ruby (Ruby the Copycat, my fav book when I was little and The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom)
Holden (The Catcher in the Rye by J.D.Salinger)
Harper, Scout, Atticus, Radley (To Kill A Mocking Bird by Harper Lee)
Tala (Also from Mitch Albom's The Five People You Meet In Heaven)                                                                                                                            
That is just a few.




What are some of your favorites that were influenced by books/movies/tv?

LOL Yeah, I suppose it would be!

I've always wanted to see PEI, ever since I fell in love with Anne when I was about three years old.


Year of Anne?
