HelpRe: How strong is Chandler's connection to the sitcom character?
in reply to a message by Francisinfp5w4
Since the actor has died very recently, I think right now the connection to the character is especially strong right now.
Also, as New_Chloë said there aren't any other famous people/characters named Chandler (all I can think of is an actress from a Disney movie who is not very known). However, I disagree with them about Chandler being perceived as retro by younger generations. Friends is a very famous show and it gains new fans even nowadays. I know many 15-16 year old kids whose favourite show (or one of they're favourites) is Friends.
So, I think the connection with the character will remain strong as long as the show continues to be succesfull. After that, as it was mentioned before, the name will probably be thought of as retro or nostalgic.
