HelpRe: Have you ever met someone in real life who named their child a “fandom name”?
in reply to a message by Francisinfp5w4
Sort of. I've met a Juliet whose parents were inspired by Shakespeare. I'm pretty sure at least one Elizabeth I've met was partially named in honor of Elizabeth Bennett. The Shakespeare and Jane Austen Fandoms are alive and well. I know a Rose whose mother was inspired after watching Titanic but of course also liked the flower. I have suspicions that "The Mummy" was partly responsible for at least one of the little Evelyn/ Evie girls running around.
A lot of people seem to make subtle references like Luke. Who is to say whether Luke was named after the apostle or Star Wars unless you really know the family?
