Angelina (Sir's eldest daughter): Angelina Jolie. Emily (Sir's younger daughter): Emily Browning. I was going to name her Jolie, but I thought would've been too obvious. Ingrid (Sir's ex-wife): Ingrid Bergman as well as one of my dolls. (I have many of them ) Alice (Mrs. Bass' daughter): Alice in Wonderland.

I was just about to praise Sir and Charles for being fathers. Then I realized that Charles wasn't the other legal parent of Angelina and Emily, what with the mention of Ingrid. Hopefully she and Sir are on good terms, despite their divorce. And I remember you mentioning you have a doll collection at some point. That is so cool!

Yes, they are. I had this idea for a fic (which I never wrote down. It was very late night and I forgot it straight away the next morning) where they were friends, or at least, civil with each other. I've been debating whether or not I should give Sir and Charles an adopted child, but I'm not entirely sure.

I can totally imagine Sir and Charles playing with a Chinese baby girl.

Yes, that is a lovely thought I've always wanted to adopt a baby from China.

beth: That sounds like a great idea for a fic. It's a shame you forgot the details, but perhaps you can think up some new ones. You certainly have the imagination for it. Seymour Glass: I'm with Beth, I love your idea of Sir and Charles adopting a baby from China. You should mention her the next time you do an interview with Sir and/or Charles.

Maybe my Sir and Charles should adopt a boy, since Sir already has two daughters?

Surrogacy is an option, too. But I personally think adoption is more "eco-friendly".

So far, I only have two actual original characters (that are not BTTF immigrants): Bertrand Jacques Squalor and Emily Quagmire (haven't yet decided on middle name).
I figured that Jerome would like to name his son after two of his dearly departed friends - and I ultimately decided on having Bertrand as his first name, mainly because I planned to have him end up with the younger Beatrice. His nickname is Bertie.
As for Emily, I just decided that I liked that name - and I was also partially influenced by Emily Browning.

@very Funky Disco: I've always loved how you named Jerome and Justice Strauss' son after Bertrand and Jacques. I also like the nickname "Berie". I had thought about naming Jerome's and Esme's son - if they ever had a child together - after Jacques, but decided against it, since it would only remind Esme about the role she played in Jacques, Sr's death. So, on the suggestion of freebird, I went with Seymour, after the title character in the short story, Seymour: An Introduction by J.D. Salinger. I've always liked the name "Emily" for your character. I did wonder if you were inspired by Emily Browning, since you seem to really like the movie. ^^

Yeah, I think the movie was cool.
Actually, I guess I do have a few other OCs - but they're minor. There is the jerk named John (or, perhaps, several jerks named John) - and also a jerk named Rhett, who believes that girls should not like heavy metal. Then, I also named two of the Winnipeg children (one of who is also named Rhett, but is not a jerk). I guess I just picked John, because it's such a common name - and I'm not sure exactly why I picked Rhett.
There is also Brent Baines (I really love the name Brent), who is a cousin to the Quagmires and an old friend to the Baudelaires. He is technically a BTTF OC immigrant, though - if you get what I mean.

Yes, I remember bully!Rhett from an interview or two you did with little!Beatrice once before. Every time I hear the name Rhett, I think of Rhett Butler, Clark Gable's character in Gone with the Wind. Rhett Butler is, if you think about it, a bit of a jerk, so the name of your character could certainly be an allusion to the first Rhett, if you wanted it to be.
I like the name Brent, too; it sounds to me like the name of a kid who's tough, but not mean. It's nice that your Brent is a cousin of the Quagmires and a friend to the Baudelaires, for the Q's and B's need all the friends they can get after all they've been through. As for Brent originally being a BTTF OC, that's cool. You should consider doing an interview with him sometime.

Those are some good points. I just remembered the names I had for R of Winnipeg and her two children: Rhianna Winnipeg, Rhett Winnipeg, and Rhonda Winnipeg. I really like the names that start with Rh.
