Characters like Ramona Flowers from Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and Robin Hood from the classic tales come to mind. There are countless others, depending on the genre and specific works you're considering.
Some popular ones include Ron Weasley from the Harry Potter series and Rapunzel from the fairy tale.
Well, there's Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead and Rogue from the X-Men universe. These are just a couple of examples.
One such character could be Ron Weasley from the Harry Potter series. He's Harry's loyal friend and part of many magical adventures.
Some examples could be Elsa from Frozen or Edward from Twilight.
Some well-known ones include Mary Poppins, Merlin from Arthurian legends, and Mickey Mouse.
Frodo Baggins has a cool name. It's a name that is both simple and evokes a sense of the ordinary turned extraordinary in 'The Lord of the Rings'. Then there's Captain Jack Sparrow. His name just rolls off the tongue and gives the impression of a swashbuckling, unpredictable pirate. Also, Buffy Summers from 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' has a cool name. It's modern yet has a touch of the supernatural.
In many mystery stories, there could be background characters whose names are only briefly mentioned or not at all. Maybe a witness or a neighbor who has a small role but whose name doesn't stick in the reader's mind.
Sure, names of fictional characters matter. They can set the tone for the character, distinguish them from others, and sometimes even drive the plot. For example, a name like 'Dark Knight' might suggest a mysterious and powerful hero.
It depends on what you mean by 'deepest'. But some characters considered deep could be like Hamlet from Shakespeare's play, known for his complex internal struggles and philosophical musings.
Belle from Beauty and the Beast is another. Her love for books helps her escape her small town and dream of greater adventures. It's a key part of her character.
One example could be Lorelai Gilmore from 'Gilmore Girls'. She's often seen sipping coffee and has a deep love for it.
I'd say characters like Harry Potter had their fair share of suffering. Losing his parents at a young age and constantly facing life-threatening dangers was tough.
