Two famous fictional bearers:Midshipman Archie Kennedy, played by actor Jamie Bamber, in the late 1990s British television Horatio Hornblower series starring Ioan Gruffudd. Portrayed as young Hornblower's best friend in the Royal Navy, Archie was a far bigger character in the series than in the books by C.S. Forester, and owing to Bamber's youthful good looks became a real hit with young female viewers. I wouldn't be surprised if the popularity of the name received a boost at that time.Ventriloquist Peter Brough's dummy Archie Andrews, well-known on British television in the 1950s and 1960s.

Archie Bradley is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Arizona Diamondbacks of Major League Baseball (MLB). He was drafted seventh overall by the Diamondbacks in the 2011 Major League Baseball Draft. After transferring from Muskogee High School to Broken Arrow Senior High School before his junior year, Bradley quickly became the starting quarterback on the school's varsity football team and a starting pitcher for the baseball team. After his junior year, Bradley was named to the 2010 Aflac All-American Baseball Classic roster. In 2011, during his senior season, he led the team to a 36–2 record and its first 6A State Championship since 1991. In the championship game against the Rams of Owasso High School, Bradley struck out 14 batters and allowed just two hits over seven innings in a 4–0 win. He finished his senior season with a 12–1 record, allowing just three earned runs in 71 1⁄3 innings, walking 11 batters and striking out 133. Bradley was expected to be drafted in the first round of the 2011 draft.
