Well, first to answer the question, Jack Bauer. Second, I don't think it is wrong to name your child after a TV character. My fiirst three kids (of four) were not named after anyone. We new nobody with their names nor were they from TV. We just liked them and knew that we would be the ones to hear and say their names the most and we wanted something we really liked. Our youngest was sort of the same except we have family members on both sides with the same name. I think that you just have to pick a name that you "like". Whether you like it because it sounds funny, or is a family member that you love and respect and honor, or even a TV character that brings you good memories and happy thoughts. Bottom line, as long as YOU like the name of your children, who the hell cares what anybody else thinks. :o)

I was going to name my first baby 'Aidan' because of the character from sex and the city! Totally lame but he was so darn cute! It was a girl though. would never use the name again, far too common now 5 years later.
I wouldn't go naming my kid 'The Fonz' or something (from happy days if you don't already know) but if you hear a name on TV and you like it why shouldn't you use it?

I was named after a TV character (but with a different spelling). As long as it is a name you truly like, I don't see a problem.
Some of my favorite names are names I got from books and television shows.

If you heard the name on TV and likeit good. If you want your kid to grow up to be a character you like - creepy.
Maxamelia? - Maxie Jones on General Hospital
Felicia - her mom on the show
Cricket - I remember that from a soap when I was a kid
Morgan - It can be unisex
Chandler
It really sounds like I only watch soap operas!

It doesn't worry me, each person to their own.

I can think of a bunch of tv names but why would you??? The purpose of naming your child after another person is to honor that person. Maybe if it was a deserving person like John Kennedy or Martin King but a tv character???? Maybe you should try and pay more attention to the important people in your life and honor them instead of a complete stranger who you may never meet. If i were a parent I would be mortified if my spouse would want to use a TV name to name our child!!!! seems kinda sad to me.... :( good luck -alan

I named my daughter after a TV name I guess, I had never heard it except on tv. (Mallory) I don't remember the name of the show, but she was the real dumb sister of Alex P. Keaton. Then I saw the name again on The Real World and I thought she was a sweet girl and I liked the name.

we are not naming our son after the character, but we got the idea from Reba to name our son Van. We thought it was a simple yet, not too common name.
