Re: Local BAs
in reply to a message by insane romantic
Yeah, for whatever reason Eowyn is like really popular in my area. It started around 2005/2006 when I began noticing a few Eowyn's here and there in the paper, and then it kinda died down for a bit but since The Hobbit came out it started getting popular again. My guess is it's due to a combination of Tolkien fans and (mostly) people just seeing the name in the paper and liking it. Plus it seems like way more than it is, cause this is a year's worth of BAs, not just like a month lol
But, yeah, my town is weird. We relatively close to a major urban city but we're also "rural" so the names that turn up in BAs tend to have a strange mix of names.

I've just read The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey which came out in 2012 and has been talked about a lot. Maybe that has influenced people along with the Tolkein thing?
