[Opinions] Re: Khaleesi and Katniss
in reply to a message by Magz
The article is BS. Samantha was used long before Bewitched. I forget the name of the series but there was a series of books in the late 1800's featuring a character named Samantha. We talked about it in school briefly. The one title I remember is "Samantha On the Race Problem" and the books were supposed to be social commentary.Katniss was made up for the Hunger Games. Samantha and Bella are not made-up names.

I think they mean it went through a long period of time of not being popular-- it wasn't in the top 1000 for nearly 50 years before Bewitched, when it suddenly jumped to the 400s and grew from there. And like Lakin said, Katniss is just another flower name. An uncommon one, but it's not made up, not like Khaleesi.

Katniss is a name of an flower, so it's not made up!
