Yes, actually I do. Known a few goth/alts with that name. After that I think of Jessica Rabbit though, which certainly is a cartoon bimbo... with style.

I didn't even think of Ms Rabbit! She was cool, though. Not enough badass redheads in books, comics and films.

From Who Framed Roger Rabbit? A Femme Fatale style cartoon character- lots of very exaggerated leg and cleavage, lots of that glamour that was prevalent from the 1920s till about the 1950s. Redhead. Wears a red sequinned dress.

Originally my mom wanted to name me Santiago, after her father.
My dad ended up deciding to name me after a local big band leader whose band & music show used to liven up the dances he'd go to.
Since I love music, I guess its ok.
Mind you, I didn't say what the dorky name is, lol!

I do not like to be called by my full name.
I got named by a priest in the temple we used to go to.
It means conqueror. :P
And my middle name means Princess.
So in a sense I am a conquering princess. Awesome.

My mother named me Kathryn because her name is Robyn, and her biological mother's name was Roselyn, and she wanted to keep with the trend. My middle name is Brooke, after Brookie Sunshine - the only girl in high school with skirts shorter than my mother's.
I swear my mother was an adult when she had me...

My parents were going to name me Ashley but they decided it was too common. So they still used Ash and combined it with my great grandma's name Lynn and named me Ashlynn.

My name is Maren, after my moms best friend who died in a car crashed shortly before I was born...For some reason, everyone pronounces it wrong, it sounds just like karen...it means sea or ocean.

(had to add the period in there because it was censored for some reason)

My parents were convinced I'd be born a boy, so my name was going to be Timothy. I'm rather glad that didn't happen, especially due to all the 'TIMMEH!' jokes I would have had to deal with after South Park created a certain character >_>
Instead I got Alison, just because my parents liked it. LAME.

My given name is Christopher, which means "Christ bearer". My mother is not religious, so she must just be fond of the name Chris because she told me that had I been a girl she would have named me Christina.
The sick part is that my mother's name is Mary...
