Names that instantly make you think of a character or a famous person

[Yoshi155]

I’m not going to do fictional because then this list would go on forever. Just assume that if the name belongs to a character in a movie, show, book, or video game, especially if it’s a famous one, I’ll probably immediately think of it when I see the name. For real people, just to name a few, there’s:

• Taylor
• Ryan
• Leonardo (there’s two for that one)
• Britney
• Abraham (there’s also two for that one)
• Jack

Can I go with the obvious names here in Mario and Luigi? I will always think of these two when I hear either of their names. Even those who aren't into video games will recognize these two. They are so iconic.

The name 'Calvin' always reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes!
And the name 'Finn' will always remind me of Adventure Time at this point, lol

Whenever I hear the name, "Iggy", the first and ONLY famous person that pops up in my mind is Iggy. As a matter of fact, I find it super-duper extremely weird when someone mentions that name and they're actually referring to some "Iggy" who isn't the one true Iggy (like that lame rapper who's from Australia or New Zealand. If you're referring to that "Iggy", or any other "Iggy" who isn't Iggy, then please be sure to also say their last names so as to avoid any misunderstandings with me. Thank you!).

That name just reminds me of Roxxxy Andrews lol. Though I also think of that comic, depending on how it’s spelled.

Yeah, for me any time I hear "Roxy" I think

I'M ROXXXY ANDREWS AND I'M HERE TO MAKE IT CLEAR

Chris Farley’s name sort of has a reverse effect for me because I went to school with a kid actually named Chris Farley and he was a really horrible person to be around and he was a massive bully. He’s also dead now.
