Holy crap on a stick!

The guy who plays Sherlock in Sherlock Holmes at my school (which btw, I did get cast as Billy. A boy. But I digress) is Todd Dezago. He was a comic book writer about ten years ago and he wrote for Spiderman, Batman etc. I was talking geek with the guy who plays Watson, we were discussing the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, and then branched into ( Read more... )

Hahaha... there are still people named Todd :D

RISA... Harry Potter did not get an entry?! *freaks out*

And also, I want to name one of my kids Toby.

...

oh, and I'm probably getting a new tattoo over spring break. WEEE!

I didn't know about Harry Potter until after I'd updated and it was really late. I've been living at my school lately.

For the love of everything in the world, do not name your child Toby. Every single person (aka character) with that name has had something terrible happen to them. Tobias from Animorphs: trapped in the body of a hawk, Toby from the play The Medium: a mute boy who was beaten and acted more like a puppy than anything else, Toby from Sweeny Todd: abused boy who helped a woman kill people and cook them in pies and wound up in a mental institution, Toby from Transamerica: sexually abused by his stepfather, found his mother after she committed suicide, drug addict and prostitute.

Tobey Maguire, however, seems to be okay. But that's the only one I know.

Ooh, what kind of tattoo?

(/random butting in - apologies)

My bother wants to name his son Toby - they should hook up (totally kidding). But seriously, you forgot Toby from Labyrinth! He was stolen by goblins but his sister saved him (and really, would being the next Goblin King be so bad? I look at David Bowie and I think not).

:D

I bet that's what gave thalia_my_muse the idea in the first place. And I can't believe I forgot him.

Seriously, if you want a tragic character, Tobias/Toby is the name to give.

Okay, imaginaryalice is totally right. I got the idea from Sarah in the Labyrinth wailing, "TOBY!" so much. Kidnapped by David Bowie (and quite frankly, cared for very well) would NOT be a bad thing ( ... )
