Today's geeky prompt from The Nerdy Girlie and SuperSpaceChick is actually "Characters I Would Name My Kids After". I don't have kids and I do not want any, but I love animals.
My dogs are Legolas (as in LOTR) and Arthur (as in King). Kristy was named after a character from The Baby Sitter's Club books and Juliet is from Shakespeare. When Juliet had kittens I named them all after Shakespeare characters including our Lear.
So for today's fandom friday I'm going with a list of characters I would name my pets after.

One of my absolute favorites in The Game of Thrones. She is a survivor. Sassy, adaptable and strong willed. You don't mess with an Ayra because she will cut you ; )

I love Farscape. Criton is the lost in space hero with a wicked sense of humor. I would love to have a puppy I could call out to as "Criton". Pity I cannot do a Rygel impression when saying his name.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I do get new puppies I want two, Criton and Chiana. I may be one of the few people that shipped Criton and Chiana. Sure they had a big brother/little sister thing going on, but the fandom wants what the fandom wants.

After reading the entire Mortal Instruments series the name Jace stuck with me. I know not that many people were thrilled with this YA series but I actually loved it. I have yet to find a YA series where I like the characters and the story as much as this one. Hunger Games is the other YA series I really liked.

Are any of your fur babies named after favorite characters?
I love Arya! She's one of my favorite characters from GoT! And Jace sounds like a good name too...
ReplyDeleteI just love Arya and the actress who plays her is amazing
Delete7 Brides for 7 Brothers! It's kind of a creepy musical when you look at it now, but it's also a lot of fun and one of my boyfriend's favorite movies. Nice to see a nod to it in this week's 5 Fandom Friday. Bless your beautiful hide. ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah it is a bit on the creepy side but the music makes up for the abduction plot ; )
DeleteOoooh these are all so unique sounding and cool. I love that you actually have a dog named Legolas, and Shakespearean names are the BEST.
