Re: Artemis Fowl
in reply to a message by Jaime
I like Artemis on a girl, but Artemus on a boy, now that Array suggests it.
The character is very smart, but he deals mainly with evil plots to make money. He gets embroiled in a secret fairy world while he searches for gold!
When i read the book, I was thinking, "Isn't Artemis a girl's name?" Until I got to the part where it explained that it was a family name and for "hunters." After reading, it didn't strike me as that odd any longer. Now, I tend to think of the character when I hear the name, but I do know it's a girls name. I picture little Arty first, then a godess with a huge bow and arrow!
Vikram is very cute! I like it!

"-yet, sadly, accidental rudeness occurs alarmingly often."
