I got bored and decided that I'd make a poll on soap opera baby names. I took the three soaps that I watch semi-regularly (Days of our Lives, General Hospital, Passions) and made a list of all of the children (that I can think of) that have been born/stillborn/miscarried/etc. over the past ten years and are still children. I probably forgot some kids, so if you watch any of these shows and spot the absence of a baby's name, you'll have to forgive me.

[Poll #957407]

  • Ciara Brady and Claire Kiriakis had their names chosen by fans online. With Ciara, fans could choose from Bridget, Ciara, Cassidy, Darcy, and Rori; with Claire, the choices were Claire, Hillary, and Margaret.
  • Kristina Adela Corinthos Davis's name is spelled with a "K" because she was named for her late aunt Kristina Cassadine, who was, I believe, either Russian or Greek (or maybe both).
  • Endora Lenox is so named because she is the half-witch, half-mortal daughter of Tabitha Lenox and Julian Crane. Passions loves ripping off Bewitched: Tabitha's parents were Darrin and Samantha.

    And, in case you watch Passions and were wondering, Jack was the name that Sam and Grace had planned to use for their unborn son. Grace suffered a miscarriage in 2001 after learning that Sam was really Ethan's father. Sarah is Ethan and Gwen's stillborn daughter (she was baptised so in Los Angeles), and Nathan was the name that they had chosen for the baby boy that they lost.
