TV inspirations?

A FB friend recently posted a "these were the cartoons of my childhood" video. I was reminded how Lydia was always on my list of girl names because of Beetlejuice. Anyone else have names (guilty pleasure or otherwise) on their lists that come from shows/movies you watched?

Definitely. My daughters middle name is Strawberry, for the Beatles since our last name is Fields.

My second daughter, if I have one, her name will be based on a shit ton of video games and TV shows I love. Bioshock and Firefly, for hints.
But this name is also a nod to my husbands grandmother.

Our first son, if we have one, will be name we found in Futurama.

We were really set on Arya back when we first met, YEARS before the show came out bc we're huge fans of the book but once the show came out when knew it was off the list. Her name is now Beau.

I also liked Arabella, Arthur, and Phinneas from Harry Potter
Trillian(we were dead set on this forever for # 2 until recently) from Hitchhikers Guide, Tully as a nn from GoT
Tallulah NN Lulu from Divine Secrets.

So yeah lots! LOL. But only a few made final cut

Simon was on my list for a long time (after my fave character from a TV show and my favorite chipmunk) but I got a dog and used it for him instead of a human child (which I don't have yet).

Ever since I started watching The 100, Octavia has been my top girls name.
Elspeth is on my list too, I'd never really heard it until I saw a character on The Good Wife.

I also have a heap on middle name list from tv shows:
Spencer (Pretty Little Liars, my guilty pleasure name & show), Vada (My Girl), Sydney (Alias), Isabeau (Lost Girl), Myka (Warehouse 13) & Fox (Mulder)

My daughter is Lydia and although my husband,came up with it, I was so happy because of the Beetlejuice reference.
