Help[Opinions] Re: Do you associate these names with the Hunger Games?
in reply to a message by HappyApple
I've never watched or read it, and I haven't heard of any of those people that you named. So, I don't.
However, I've heard the names of some Harry Potter characters without ever watching or reading it. For that reason, I'm unlikely to use Hermione or Draco on my children.
I might still use Meadow or Willow because I love nature, and they make me thing of the beauty and tranquility that can come with them. But as a general rule, I want to avoid modern names. They are in danger of falling out of favor by the time that I have kids. I want to pick unique names, but not anything that will evoke strange responses.
I have a soft spot for Ember, but it does sound more like a fictitious name. Ember is a character from "Elementals", the Disney movie. Ember does sound elemental - like the name of a fairy, a mage, or someone with a fiery spirit. Ember carries weight.
Normally I enjoy surnames as first names, but I tend to not like ones that end in S. They sound plural. I like Collin over Collin, Bridger over bridges, and things of that nature.
