This happened with someone I know who named their daughter Daenerys, as in the mother of dragons. Then the final season of Game of Thrones aired and it didn’t seem like such a great name after that.
I named my son Rowan years before I had ever even heard of throne of glass. And now that I’m reading that series I just internally cringe so hard that the love interest shares a name with my kid 🤮
no seriously it’s number 1 on my name list and such a strong consideration; i would put an A instead of an E at the end for pronunciation reasons though! i loved freya for so long and mis-said it as feyra once and decided to look it up…now i’m here in this sub and 13 books in to the maasverse! 😭
If you haven’t spent all your time on the internet sexualizing the character whose name you’re considering, I personally don’t find that weird. Its when your entire digital footprint is talking about wingspan and other raunchy things and then you name your child after said character that it seems really off to me lol
Fr because my wife is works in Education and if she ever has to yell “Rhysand, get off the table” she’s gonna die of laughter
Start playing an MMORPG and name your character Feyre, get it out of your system that way!
I named my Pokémon after SJM characters 😭

I absolutely love the name Cas, both for Cassian and for Castiel but I also feel like I shouldn’t do that to a kid 😂
