Help[Opinions] Re: WDYTO Hermione
in reply to a message by KamakaMalia2006
Love it, love it, love it.
I know some won't like it because they think it is too connected to Harry Potter. I like the fact that the series has brought names back to the attention of a new generation of name lovers.
I used to watch old movies growing up and two British actresses were named Hermione Gingold and Hermione Baddely. (sp?) That is where I first heard the name. Then as I grew older I learned about the Shakespeare character. I never thought Americans would know how to pronounce the name, let alone ever even see it in print. So I'm grateful HP for bringing it back.
