Heather

First Miss America who was deaf - Heather Whitestone.

Heather Watson is a British professional tennis player. A former British No. 1, Watson has won nine titles over her career, including the mixed-doubles title at the 2016 Wimbledon Championships partnering Henri Kontinen, making her the first British woman to win a major title since Jo Durie in 1991, and the first to win a Wimbledon title since Durie in 1987. In October 2012, Watson won her first WTA Tour singles title at the Japan Women's Open, becoming the first British woman to win a WTA Tour singles title since Sara Gomer in 1988.

Though she seems forgotten today, a major influence on introducing the name Heather into the United States was the English actress Heather Angel (1909-1986). She began her career in Britain, but moved to Hollywood in 1933 and starred in many "B" films in the 1930s and 1940s. Her last major role was as a nanny called Miss Faversham on the television sitcom "Family Affair." Heather first began to substantially rise in use in the United States just when Heather Angel started regularly appearing on American movie screens.

Heather Acosta is a character in the book series Sammy Keyes. She is Sammy's archenemy.

I find it odd as a Heather born in 1980 myself, that Heather Locklear isn't on this site's Actors list of associated famous names. Heather Locklear was probably the most brought up Heather in media & name associations I heard personally. [noted -ed]
Oddly, throughout my personal experiences, I've never known very many others also named Heather, except one year in elementary school I had a class with 3 other Heather's in it. Causing us to each have to be identified by our first name AND the first letter of our last names. That was the only instance of knowledge of the name's social popularity for me.
Ironically, my mom picked the name Heather for me because at the time where she lived in Hawaii, it was rather uncommon (as far as she knew!) That and, it was the ONLY female name my mom & dad could BOTH agree on.
In kindergarten, I looked almost identical to Heather O'Rourke. They could have tapped me to continue on as Carol Anne/Carol Ann (also funny as my middle name is Anne) in the Poltergeist film franchise after her tragic passing. My chipmunk cheeks didn't begin thinning out until I was around 25 or 26 years old. (Much to my annoyance I was tired of looking like & being treated like a kid).
I also saw the 1988 film 'Heather's' starring Winona Ryder & Christian Slater (his sexiest on screen appearance IMHO) when it was released to VHS & absolutely LOVED IT! I know the film word for word & I've seen it an uncounted number of times, but it's gotta be in the 100s of times. If the apocalypse were to occur and wipe out cinema I could write, direct, cast, & perform it for the world, no problem. 'Heather's' is STILL to this day one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE FILMS.
I love its fearlessness & bold take on dark comedy, with a poignant though exaggerated take on teen culture, sociological status issues (especially pertaining to high school hierarchy), and the use of slang terms completely unique to the Heather's film universe.

In more recent days, the name Heather refers to the song by Conan Gray. Heather is popular, beautiful, talented, smart, and somebody everybody likes. Girls aspire to be Heather. This is more popular in teenage culture.

When I see and hear the name Heather I cannot help but think of Heather Chandler, Heather Duke, and Heather McNamara from the musical/movie "The Heathers." "The Heathers" is one of my favorite musicals/movies and I actually love the characters. I would name a daughter or character Heather BECAUSE of the musical/movie. It is a lovely name for a girl, despite the rather undesirable traits of the characters.

The name Heather is also a character from a movie and game series called Silent Hill. She is a main character in the Silent Hill 3 video game for PS2 and Microsoft Windows. In the movie Silent Hills Revelation, she is also one of the main characters. Heather isn't the only character in Silent Hill. Alessa and so far Claudia are also characters in Silent Hill. Both aren't playable in the games but, are still a part of the game. I think it may not hurt to check out all of the Silent Hill's video games for all of the character's names and the meaning behind their name as well. However, that is your call to make. What I am giving you is just a suggestion. Thank you for taking the time to read my suggestion.
