    My DP is Cory, named after a kid called Cory in a tv show from the 60's 'Julia'

    My Mum first decided on my name after watching Little House on the Prairie - But my Dad liked it pronounced "Ah-lee-see-ah" instead of "Ah-lee-sha" - So I kind of am named after a tv show, but not...

    Okay... So about the Twilight thing... Um I didn't EXACTLY name my little boy after any of the characters...

    It's more that I heard a name in the movie that I liked and it so happened that my previous choice of name had just been tossed due to us not liking the inevitable nickname... so there was a vacancy, so to speak...

    So my little boy will be Cullen Jett, or CJ for short.

    Please nobody stone me!

    LOL which nasty cow? Aunt March or Amy? I wanted to call DD Meg or Amy from Little Women but DH didnt like the names.

    I didn't name DD after a character but loved Bold and the Beautiful at the time. I was even watching it while I was in heavy labour with her, she was born shortly after the show finished. I called her Brooke but not after Brooke from Bold.

    on the topic of twilight all the names are pretty good especially the girls bella, alice, rosalee, esme all very pretty names and the boys too Jasper, edward, carlisle, emmett, jacob, charlie so even if u did name ur kids after them it would be hard to tell

    We named DS Jasper and it's coincided with Twilight popularity, but I swear, I've had the name picked since I had DD1 11 years ago!! Truly!

    My name is Amy. I think I would've decked my parents if they had've called me March.

    our ds2 is named after a song that my dh was in love with at the time- 'Jimmy Rickard' and a footballer that i think is a cutie-'Jimmy Bartel'. we both came up with the name seperately and for different reasons so decided it was a winner.
