I definitely would. I'm big into music so looked to my favourite bands/song names for my girls - DD1's name Emily is after the song by From First To Last (check it out, it's a beautiful song - written by the singer for his long-distance girlfriend, but the lyrics worked for my baby girl - 'There's no-one in the world like Emilyyyyy...').
And DD2 very nearly got christened Blair after the character from Gossip Girl, which is one of my favourite shows, but it didn't go with our surname (which starts with R, so it kind if ran together when said out loud, kwim?) so we looked at it for a middle name, but then decided Nicole sounded better (no famous association there, I'm not a Kidman fan at all lol, just liked the name).

I'm also big on Shakespeare, but although Desdemona and Juliet are my favourite characters, I was really taken with the name Ophelia (I fancied shortening it to 'Phil', as people shorten Charlotte to 'Charlie'), but DH told me I was out of my head for even considering such an unusual name

So yes, I definitely would look to my favourite books, movies, music, TV shows etc for inspiration!!
