Re: Heath
Sorry, but I think overall he was just awful and a horrible role model. He was so full of hate and anger. He might have been intelligent and determined but that doesn't outweigh his bad character traits. There are many characters who are intelligent to name your child after, no reason to choose him. I also always wondered whether he was really so devoted to Cathy. I mean her daughter obviously meant a lot to her and he didn't exactly treat her well. I would just guess that if you truly loved someone you would also be somewhat nice to the people that person cares about, be it only to avoid hurting the one you love. I mean she was already dead by then, but still. Don't get me wrong, I think it's fine when people named their kids Heath or even Heathcliff, I just think it's weird when they say that they deliberately named their kid after him. It makes me wonder whether they have actually read the novel.No, he's just Heath. Heath Jonathan if I remember correctly. His sister is Catherine Rose but she has always been called Kate. I think you can name your child after someone without using the full name. Even though I agree that in this case it's kind of odd because the character is, as far as I remember, never called Heath.
