Game of Thrones, Twilight top 2012 list of most popular baby names

Quote:

Check out what's trending for the first part of 2012:

Theon, as used in George R.R. Martin's popular Game of Thrones books and the subsequent HBO series.

Decimus, which popped up because characters in the massive hit The Hunger Games have some Roman-esque names, is really buzzing in 2012. The word also means "tenth" in ancient Rome.

Nova, as in a massive explosion involving a star, is on the rise this year.

Halcyon, which is a mythical kingfisher bird that could calm the sea, is gaining some buzz among celebrities and the general public.

Caia, a main character in the Samantha Young fantasy novel series Lunarmorte is really starting to spread this year. Also, in Roman mythology, Caia was a goddess of fire and of women.

Arya, the name of a character in Game of Thrones, has increased by an absolutely insane 800 percent in usage since the hit series began.

Senna, which is stepping in for recently popular name Bella, is the latest Twilight name to find popularity among the masses. Senna is the name of a vampire in the popular series.

There are quite a few names I like in the books

Stannis
Edric
Benjen
Brynden

I have always thought about using names from movie/books/games

One of my friends jokes that his son's middle name is going to be Butane, because "Nobody's going to **** with Butane Jones".

The second big 'teen-trash' star from the UK to make the series. The first was from 'Skins' and plays the bastard son (not Snow) the other one.

If I ever get a dog I will name him Aegon the Conqueror. Egg for short.

Should we change the thread title to "Hugo-Winning Game of Thrones?"

George R.R. Martin nearly turned down a Thrones TV series

Quote:

Martin reportedly told producers D.B. Weiss and David Benioff that "Hollywood Boulevard is lined with the skulls and bleached bones" of adaptations that bombed; and that failure on the small screen could "cause fans to question their dedication to the series."
