What are some good tv names and what do you think of naming your child after a tv character?

This is just for fun - I am not really naming a child.

REPEAT, THIS IS JUST FOR FUN. I AM NOT NAMING A BABY FOR REAL.

im so gonna name my first baby boy soda pop like in the outsiders book from se hilton.

OMG! Its much better to name you child after a car! Lexus, Mercedes, Corolla, see what I mean!!

b a barackus from the a team.

I was going to name my first baby 'Aidan' because of the character from sex and the city! Totally lame but he was so darn cute! It was a girl though. would never use the name again, far too common now 5 years later.

I wouldn't go naming my kid 'The Fonz' or something (from happy days if you don't already know) but if you hear a name on TV and you like it why shouldn't you use it?

I was named after a TV character (but with a different spelling). As long as it is a name you truly like, I don't see a problem.

Some of my favorite names are names I got from books and television shows.

I got my son's name from a television character. His name is Meldrick. We heard the name on "Homicide: Life On The Street". One of the detectives was named Meldrick Lewis.

I can think of a bunch of tv names but why would you??? The purpose of naming your child after another person is to honor that person. Maybe if it was a deserving person like John Kennedy or Martin King but a tv character???? Maybe you should try and pay more attention to the important people in your life and honor them instead of a complete stranger who you may never meet. If i were a parent I would be mortified if my spouse would want to use a TV name to name our child!!!! seems kinda sad to me.... :( good luck -alan

Gilligan

we are not naming our son after the character, but we got the idea from Reba to name our son Van. We thought it was a simple yet, not too common name.

Captain James T. Kirk

Arabella - "Babe" from All My Children
I think that is so pretty.


I don't think anything is wrong with it unless you are giving them the whole name. That might be overkill.

I know heaps of people who have done this for real!!!

Bodie - Big Brother 2007 (Australia)
Sally - Home & Away
Chandler - Friends
Ross - Friends
Brandy - Singer & Film Star
Nicholas -Nicholas Cage
George - George Cloony
Mark Vincent - Vin Diesel
Jewel


They are the ones who come to mind.
It doesn't worry me, each person to their own.

I like Lorelei ((sp?)) from Gilmore Girls, I think that's such a pretty name and I love that show haha. But I'm not really for that I think it's stupid to name your kid after someone on the television

I would name my child after Sasuke from the anime/manga NARUTO/NARUTO SHIPPUDEN....
Because I'm that obsessed with Sasuke...
And I'm a creepy girl...
Uh....
Happy Holidays?
:]

my sister is named after Mallory Family Ties

Eric Delco (CSI;Miami)
Jason Morgan (General Hospital)

Well, first to answer the question, Jack Bauer. Second, I don't think it is wrong to name your child after a TV character. My fiirst three kids (of four) were not named after anyone. We new nobody with their names nor were they from TV. We just liked them and knew that we would be the ones to hear and say their names the most and we wanted something we really liked. Our youngest was sort of the same except we have family members on both sides with the same name. I think that you just have to pick a name that you "like". Whether you like it because it sounds funny, or is a family member that you love and respect and honor, or even a TV character that brings you good memories and happy thoughts. Bottom line, as long as YOU like the name of your children, who the hell cares what anybody else thinks. :o)

If you heard the name on TV and likeit good. If you want your kid to grow up to be a character you like - creepy.

Maxamelia? - Maxie Jones on General Hospital
Felicia - her mom on the show
Cricket - I remember that from a soap when I was a kid
Morgan - It can be unisex
Chandler

It really sounds like I only watch soap operas!

start looking at the soap operas

if my wife had a bot i liked Dalton from Road House but we had two beautiful girls

my mom named me after bionic woman- jaime summers
it was her favorite show growing up and she always wanted to name her daughter jaime. so...here i am.

I named my daughter after a TV name I guess, I had never heard it except on tv. (Mallory) I don't remember the name of the show, but she was the real dumb sister of Alex P. Keaton. Then I saw the name again on The Real World and I thought she was a sweet girl and I liked the name.

obvioulsy I love the name Nicky Fontana...google it you'll see
if i liked the name then yes
