My oldest son is named Justice after Justus Quartermaine from General Hospital. I changed the spelling but I first heard the name in jr. high and it stuck with me. They eventually "killed him off" and during the month my son was born the show brought him back. He hates it everytime I tell someone when they ask me where I came up with his name.

My daughter is named Emma after a grandmother but we joke that she was really named after Emma Watson since my husband and I are huge Harry Potter fans. We joke (ok, half joke) that if we have son we will name him Thomas after Tom Felton.0

Back when I was young there was a character on a soap my mom watched...ok I watched it too...her name was Sierra. When I was pregnant I kept seeing the word and it reminded me of the name. My neighbor drove a sierra truck. Maxwell house came out with a sierra coffee. Sierra leone was in the news. I think it was meant to be.
Sierra Danielle was born on earth day.

When I was younger i wanted to name my first boy Demijohn, from The Little Women. ("Name him Demijohn, and call him Demi for short, said Laurie") Then Demi Moore became widely known and Demi morphed into a girl's name. My daughter, Teagan, is named from a Celtic poem one of my grandmothers' loved.0 -
My son's name is Jasper but I swear to all that is holy that it is NOT after the damn sparkly vampire...I was hoping everyone would forget about that character when I picked the name, but no. I have had several people ask me if that's where I got it... *sigh* |0

My son's name is Carter. His dad wanted that name, I wanted Griffin (which I got from Party of Five). Anyway, we couldn't decide. The tv was on when I was in labor. I pushed for an hour - the entire time the show ER was on. Carter was my favorite character and even though Carter was his last name, I agreed to it being my son's name because his dad wanted it and because of the show being on. For those of you that remember ER, it was the episode where Dr. Benton's son was born and that baby was named Reese. I think we should have named him Reese instead. Carter wishes we had chosen Griffin.0
